Banh Bo Thot Not (baked honeycomb cake), one of best dishes to try in Mekong Delta

While baked honeycomb cake can be found anywhere in Vietnam, the version that uses palm sugar can only be retrieved in the province of An Giang, in which a lot of ice apple trees, the species that produces palm sugar, are planted.

It tastes less sugary, creamier and has a better smell than normal ones.

Also, palm sugar has been scientifically proved to be highly beneficial for human health, in contrast to the detrimental effects that ordinary fine sugar exerts on our health.

Thus, don't hesitate to try this type of food when you happen to be in An Giang.
