WHISPERS FROM THE PAST

Here, we serve only chả cá and dishes inspired by fish.

Chả cá is a traditional Hanoi dish made from fresh fish marinated with turmeric, dill, and fermented shrimp paste.
At Madam Tư Hồng, this familiar recipe is preserved with refined care — gently seasoned, delicately sliced, and served with grace.
It is best enjoyed sizzling hot in a small cast-iron pan, accompanied by rice vermicelli, fresh herbs, roasted peanuts, and a tangy fermented shrimp sauce.

Here, we serve only chả cá and inventive dishes built around lăng fish — a seemingly familiar ingredient, always holding a quiet surprise.

Do You Know How to Truly Enjoy Chả Cá?

The Chả Cá is served sizzling in a hot pan, fragrant with scallions and dill — an irresistible invitation to the senses.
Start with a bowl of fresh vermicelli, add roasted peanuts, sliced scallions, crispy shallots, and sautéed greens for a perfect harmony of textures.
Then, gently place each piece of hot chả cá over the noodles, drizzle with whipped fermented shrimp sauce, mix well, and enjoy — a beautiful fusion of aroma, flavor, and feeling.
