Fired worm

 

 

 

 



Bat Soup

 

 

 

 



Thang Co is a well-known specialty in the high jungle mountainous areas of Sapa in Lao Cai Province. The traditional main ingredient of this dish was horsemeat; nevertheless, ethnic local cooks use buffalo meat, beef or pork.

 

 

 


Deep-fried insects
