Hanoi: Banh bo nuong, a grilled palmyra pancake from Ha Co, stands out as a unique traditional dish of the Cham people in Chau Phong commune, An Giang province. This distinctive cake is crafted using rice flour, wheat flour, coconut milk, sugar, and ripe palm fruit, resulting in a flavorful blend that is both fragrant and sweet. The cake’s conical shape is achieved by grilling it over hot coals, which gives the crust a crisp texture while keeping the inside soft and spongy.

According to Vietnam News Agency, this traditional cake has become a culinary attraction, drawing visitors to the culturally rich region of An Giang. The combination of its unique ingredients and preparation method highlights the culinary essence of the Cham community, making it a sought-after specialty for tourists exploring the area.
