You won't find pho or summer rolls on the dinner menu at Sáu Can Tho, a Rosemead eatery with an amazing baked catfish (ca dut lo hau giang). While you'll find those old standbys at lunch, the dinner-only family-style meal sets for two, four or six offer a culinary tour of southern Vietnam; think dishes like mixed seafood hot pot, caramelized pork and stir-fried tamarind shrimp. With a whole section dedicated to various bubbling broths, plus venison and goat dishes, Sáu Can Tho offers a rare glimpse of Vietnamese cuisine that isn't centered around the country's national dish. Of course, the must order is the signature whole baked catfish (which is also available for preorder). Wrapped in a rice paper-clad mix of pickles, herbs and vegetables, each bite offers a delicious blend of sweet, savory and salty flavors.
