Gat Gu cake is most famous in Tien Yen. However, it can be found anywhere in Quang Ninh because of its unique taste. The more you visit Quang Ninh, the more you expand your knowledge of custom and culture in this area.
The process of making Gat Gu cake is quite similar to one of the Vietnamese steamed rice cake. Same ingredient is rice flour ground from good rice. The secret is that when grinding rice, people will add some cold rice to make the dish more delicious.
The crust of Gat Gu cake looks like fresh rice noodle rolls in Hanoi. Apart from thickness of the cake, the difference between gật gù cake and the fresh rice noodle rolls is the noodle rolls have filling (ground pork, onions, wood ear mushroom, etc.) while the gật gù cakes do not any filling.
To find a shop making gật gù cake, come Tien Yen town and ask locals here or find Hoa Binh street by yourself.
However, it is not easy to find a gật gù shop with big signboards as in Hanoi and Saigon. Because families making gật gù cake here do not hang any signboard.
Traditionally, gật gù cakes is served with meat simmered in a clay pot; special dipping sauce of dried onion, fresh pepper and chicken fat; or fried clam; or hot noodle soup, a cross-cultural cuisine among the noodle rolls, noodle soup and gật gù cakes.
