Horseshoe crab in Ho Chi Min city. It was alright. Not much meat.
Mind you I've eaten a lot of stuff that could be considered exotic. Jellyfish is pretty good.
I had a duck egg containing a baby duck in HCM. It was ok. I stopped when it got crunchy.
Balut. I was going to try it
It's pretty normal tasting. If you're a bit leery of it, try getting the quail version, you may find them easier to start with. We call them cΓΊt lα»n. Watch your tonal pronunciation or you'll ask for a "large feces".
Never tried the horseshoe crab here, I actually forgot that we eat that.
