A plate of fried giant fish is served with vegetables behind the house, a few stalks of green mango, a piece of banana or sour star fruit. Then it is indispensable for a bunch of rice paper and vermicelli to have a simple but very sophisticated meal.

A roll  of fried giant fish  will lose its taste if the owner forgets to bring out a bowl of seasoning fish sauce or chili garlic fish sauce. Because the meat is not seasoned with any spices, it can be said that the sauce is what balances the deliciousness of this dish.
