Travel Vietnam, Visit Dalat, Artichoke Tea
http://www.hotsia.com > Visit Dalat > Artichoke Tea. Artichoke Tea in Dalat, a Central Highlands area, is popular here. People commonly grow artichoke plants. If you stroll around Dalat, you will find many artichoke flowers for sale. Restaurants also serve tea made from artichokes and artichoke hot pot soup. This dish is a must-have on most restaurant menus. The price is quite high; if I remember correctly, it costs about 400 baht per pot at the restaurant I visited. In Thailand, I haven't seen this sold in regular restaurants.

So I had to try the artichoke in Dalat. After riding the cable car, the tea shop invited me to taste the tea. At first, I didn't know what kind of tea it was, but later I found out it was artichoke tea. I think this tea is really fragrant and delicious. As for the artichoke soup, I searched for it but couldn't find any affordable places to try it, so I didn't get to taste it. Watch the clip below of me tasting artichoke tea. Regarding the benefits of the artichoke flower, I learned from Wikipedia that Artichoke is a cold-climate plant.
It originates from the Mediterranean region of Europe and has medicinal properties. It can be consumed fresh or cooked and is an important dish at European banquets. It is also used to extract cynarin, a compound that helps reduce blood fat, cholesterol, triglycerides, and increases HDL lipoprotein levels without harming the liver. Mr.Hotsia March 2012.
