Mang Chua (Picked bamboo shoot) is one of Lang Son’s most famous dishes. It is sold in almost every supermarket in the country.
Banh Cuon (steamed rolls rice pan-cake) is another of its famous products. A street in HCM City, Cao Thang, has a number of Banh Cuon restaurants, whose owners all came from Lang Son.
The restaurants originated from a very famous Lang Son banh cuon shop on Cach Mang Thang Tam road in the 1970s. Dung, from the Festival Tourist Company, brought the shop to Cao Thang and created banh cuon street.
Lon quay (roast pig) and Vit quay (roast duck) are cooked with the leaves of the mac mat, a tree used mostly by Tay ethnic people in Lang Son and the neighbouring province of Cao Bang. Banh Ngai, a kind of cake that looks like a biscuit, is made from absinth leaves. Xoi Cam (Violet-steamed glutinous rice), is made from sticky rice and ash of straw and banana leaf. Banh Phap Phong (Spongy cake) is made from sticky rice or taro.
