However, we recommend going to restaurants by the beach instead, if you want to see higher qualities. Besides seafood barbecues, snail dishes are also slightly diverse at Son Tra Night Market. Eating snails is a part of local cuisine in central Vietnam. In this market, snails (oc mong tay – razor shells, oc gao – ‘rice’ snails, oc huong – ‘perfume’ snails or babylonia areolata,…) and other molluscs (so lua or chip chip – undulate venus, scallops, clams, …), from both rivers and sea, are cooked with spices and herbs (such as lemongrass, ginger, chilli, more). The most famous dish from the region is Oc hut or ‘sucking’ snails, a savory snail dish which people use the mouth to suck to get the snail meat. The sellers will serve a small plate/bowl of these tasty snails and shells, together with fresh herbs and dipping sauces or pepper-lime salt. Locals use hands or toothpicks to pick their meat (so, please bring hand sanitizer to wash hands because of no clean places at the market). For dishes in which seafood is stir-fried with specific sauces or coconut milk, locals also like calling a bread, to shred it, dip and eat with the flavourful sauce. The sauce itself usually is a little salty, buttery, spicy and sweet. Trying snails in Vietnam is an interesting experience. Some vendors introduce seafood with a cheap price at Son Tra Night Market (for example, lobsters or squids). Seafood looks so fresh when visitors see, but when people serve, may be frozen or dead seafood. Be careful!
