I bought two sticky rice cakes but was very disappointed; they were inedible. When steamed, the filling and sticky rice separated, and the mung bean filling smelled oily, making them very difficult to eat. I had to throw them away.

Sticky rice cake (Bánh tét) is soft and chewy, with a fragrant aroma of glutinous rice and a rich, creamy bean filling. Steaming is better than microwaving.

amazing, not too sweet, i love it
LinhGlass
First time having banh chung with fish and it was very good! Fish was not too fishy, but it was flavorful enough to taste the difference. I believe it was mackerel. After steaming the texture of the rice and filling was just like fresh too. Would love to order again since this unique filling is something I can't get locally.
