"Head to this Vietnamese seafood specialist for the signature baked catfish. Sáu Can Tho Vietnamese Kitchen’s whole crispy-skinned fish is served with herbs, lettuce, pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber spears, vermicelli rice noodles, and rice papers. One might need to order extra tangy-sweet tamarind dipping sauce." - Eater Staff
"The signature dish at Sáu Can Tho is baked catfish (ca dut lo hau giang). The fish’s prized crispy skin, charred in some spots and golden throughout, gives way to moist and tender flesh imbued with honey and turmeric. Served on the side are herbs and lettuce, pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber spears, vermicelli rice noodles, rice papers, and best of all, a tangy-sweet tamarind dipping sauce. Call ahead to reserve the catfish to avoid a long wait." - Cathy Chaplin
