In the bustling ambience of a modern city, being sheltered from various kinds of Vietnamese cuisine, there's a kind of baked cake called banh can of Nha Trang City which has been known for a long time as a rustic dish for the poor. However, this simple but delicious cake made from rice and egg has recently become a favorite food in buffets at luxury hotels.

In Nha Trang City in Khanh Hoa Province people can easily capture an image of a seller sitting next to a small earthen oven in the early morning making banh can. Banh can in Nha Trang has a special flavor compared to other regions thanks to its flour which is made from a mixture of ground grain rice and cold rice. The flour is poured into a mold to bake with eggs to make the cake soft and crisp. Banh can is best with a fish sauce accompanied with sliced unripe mango or mackerel. It costs just thousands of Vietnam dong.

Eating banh can in the early morning instead of pho (Vietnamese noodles) is popular with tourists from everywhere visiting Nha Trang. The feeling when sitting next to a warm oven and enjoying the sweet smell of a freshly baked cake seems to be special to some people. And it is more wonderful to put a hot, crisp cake dipped in fish sauce into the mouth.

People who visit Nha Trang should pass by Le Hong Phong, Vo Tru, Van Don or Nguyen Thien Thuat streets or Dam Market to taste this rustic and special dish of the coastal city.
