Quang Nam's most iconic dish - wide turmeric-yellow rice noodles served with minimal broth, topped with pork, shrimp, quail eggs, peanuts, and fresh herbs. Unlike northern pho or southern hu tieu, the broth is just a few spoonfuls - thick, rich, and intensely flavored.

Poached chicken over fragrant rice cooked in chicken broth - Tam Ky's version is considered by many locals to be superior to the more famous Hoi An version. The rice is toasted in chicken fat before cooking, giving it a nutty depth, served with ginger fish sauce and fresh herbs.
