Many families on Tan Ky Tan Quy Street are busy grilling blotched snakehead fish for the God of Wealth Day. This year, the God of Wealth Day (the 10th of the Lunar New Year) falls on January 31. On Monday evening, Tan Ky Tan Quy Street in Tan Phu District was full of smoke from grilling blotched snakehead fish.

After being cleaned, sugarcane sticks will be skewered into the fish before being baked. The sugarcane helps the fish to become more tasty. Trung employed 30 people, including many relatives, to serve the fish processing against just 3-4 members of his family on ordinary days. Charcoal is used for grilling the fish.
