The fish cake has long been a famous dish of Van Dinh. Despite differences in processing and recipe with Cha Ca La Vong, both are specialty of Hanoi and deserved well to introduce to tourists at home and abroad.

However, the fish cake made from major cap has more tasty and sweeter than do from ca tram and tilapia. The Van Dinh fish cake is processed by removing bones from fish meat, remove fish skin, then grind with seasonings as dry onion, dill, chili, and pure fish sauce.
