Black scrawled cowfish (Cá Bò) is a popular street food
in Nha Trang, Khánh Hoà. The name of this fish comes from their black
skin like coal. The appearance of this fish is ugly and not attractive
but it becomes the delicious food after cooking.

There are many style of making this Vietnamese street food
in my opinion, however, the grilled way is the best chosen. The fresh
one is caught from the sea is the good one. Then, using the sharp knife
to cut it, take the skin out and cut slightly some straight slice on the
fish. Finally, adding some ingredients onto the fish and bring it on
the hot coal. The good chef will grill the fish in the small fire, and
turn the fish frequently to avoid it is too fire.
