Chau Doc has a unique cuisine with the fusion of several different culinary traditions from its diverse population. Standard Vietnamese cuisine is common, but a lot of the dishes in Chau Doc have been influenced by the cuisine of nearby countries.
Chau Doc is famous for its huge variety of fish sauces!
Southern meals feature the widest range of ingredients and are usually accompanied by a light, clear broth to cleanse the palate. Pork and chicken are popular, and chillies are used extensively. Southern food can be very spicy!
The cuisine of the city is also influenced by neighbouring countries such as Cambodia and Laos. Although Chau Doc plays host to many overseas visitors, it doesn't really have an expat population, and as such there are not really any restaurants offering a specific non-Vietnamese cuisine.
