If you are so hungry you could eat a horse, Bac Ha Market in the north-western province of Lao Cai is the place for you. And you have it straight from the horse’s mouth.
Giang Seo Sau, a 65-year-old resident of Lao Cai’s Bac Ha District, is known for his expertise in cooking thắng cố (horse meat soup).
He says the dish appeared in the area nearly 200 years ago when the H’mong people settled down in the district, and to this day, the specialty of the ethnic mountainous people is said to be the most delicious at Bac Ha.
