In the journey to find new experiences, Song Cau - the land that was once part of the old Phu Yen province, now Dak Lak, has become my memorable destination.
This land not only has blue sea and white sand, but also contains simple stories of the people of the coastal areas and unforgettable culinary flavors.
The first impression when arriving at Song Cau was the peace and quiet. No noise, no fuss, this place brings a feeling of relaxation, purity, like a rare silence in the midst of a bustling life.
The wind of the sea blows windily with the salty taste, let me understand what the "breath" of the ocean is. In each step, I feel like touching the slow but vibrant rhythm of life in this coastal area.
The people of Song Cau leave me with many kindnesses right from the time I ask about the road. With a rustic and warm voice, they guide enthusiastically and enthusiastically like welcoming a relative back to their hometown.
It is that friendliness that makes visitors feel secure and close, as if they have been attached to this land for a long time.
Walking along the coast, I was excited to see the immense blue color stretching to the horizon, blending with the smooth white sand band under the sunlight. The sound of the sea waves waving like a music without words, when calm, when bustling, creates the unique rhythm of the ocean.
In particular, the scene of fishing boats returning after a night on the dune really touched me. On the beach, the scent of fresh fish, the scent of fish sauce floating in the wind, all evoke a lively, salty space, both realistic and filled with emotions.
The Cau River is not only beautiful in the sea but also accumulates in memories with its typical dishes. Among them, seafood banh xeo makes it difficult for me to forget. On the pink coal stove, each patch of flour was poured into the pan, the sound of "cheo xeo" rang out like a musical song signaling that it was about to be eaten.
The gold cake is colorful, crispy, giving off the fragrant aroma of new rice. Inside, fresh shrimp, squid, and fish have just been caught by fishermen, blending together to create the flavor of the ocean. When rolling the cake with raw vegetables, season with sweet and sour fish sauce, all senses are aroused, leaving the sweetness of seafood and the crispy taste of the cake crust melting at the tip of the tongue.
What makes the difference of the cuisine here is not only the fresh ingredients, but also the skillful hands and hospitality of the people of Song Cau. Eating a banh xeo, people see the sun and wind, and the sincere feelings sent in each layer of flour, each shrimp, and squid.
The trip to the land of the Song Cau has left me with a long impression. The Cau River is not only a destination, but a place to remember. Remember the taste of crispy seafood banh xeo, remember the sound of waves waving at the shore, and remember the gentle smiles of the people of the coastal areas.
It is the harmony between nature, cuisine and humanity that creates a very unique, unforgettable Song Cau - a beautiful piece in the memory of anyone who has set foot there.
