This was found at a junction of Le Than Ton St. Supposed to be an ice cream joint.
My breakfast. Not the healthiest, of course. Enough of lotus roots, raw vegetables and rice noodles.
Interesting interior concept. Comfy cushions, pebble and stone flooring that's uneven, potted plants. It'll make a cosy hang out for young teens.
I would recommend that they get some professional help with the flys. Those electronic fly swatters are not exactly hygienic for a food establishment.
I was on my way to get some breakfast this morning, and came across this public performance at the theater.
Bikers pulled over (or rather stopped) on the road to enjoy the performance.
A band of musicians, playing some classical piece, live.
I'll be in Hanoi from 14th to 18th April.
In the coming week, expect to see some posts on the capital city of Vietnam. Let's see how different it is from Ho Chi Minh.
I seek...
Country Road
Take me Home
To the Place
Where I Belong.....
When people see you as extra burden, and not beneficial to them, it is as good an indication that the time has come to leave.
When good intentions are viewed as stepping across boundaries, it is plain simple help is not needed .
It is simple for me. I possess none, I take none, I use none. It is just me, my knowledge, and my experience. So take it, or leave it. I won't impose.

Only recently I was told of how embarassing it is to be a citizen of my Country. How much apathy and inefficiency is potrayed by the people that represents the Country in an official manner. She doesn't have the time to tell the world, so let me do my little bit.
Will the screwups at the Embassy in Switzerland please pull your act together. Please. A person's life is at stake, and they could give that classic answer-thru-your-arse response nonchalantly.
And whilst I'm at it, will the screwup that represents my Country please, stop speaking thru your arse and think of what you say. Go get a replacement brain if yours ain't working.
Damn!

It was features as one of the "8 Films to Die For, 2007". The website above rated it 10/10. Well, either it's a really good screenplay, or really good movie, or simply, really Bloody Disgusting.
Let's find out.
Soooooo coooool.....My Sunday breakfast, on Le Than Ton St.
Gosh, it takes a whole lots of guts to advertise that. Even if the establishment is the Boss Cafe.
Ham Omelet with toast, iced milk coffee and orange juice. Healthy?
The bar counter. I believe the night would be rather cosy, with friendly staffs.

Dear May Li,
This year, I know what your Birthday wish will be. Whilst there is no way I could directly grant you that wish, I know every little prayer counts.
May your Birthday wish comes true.
Hang in there.
More sexy ladies in the lineup! My heart's thumping 3x the normal speed... My oh my.....bmp)

My fingers are itching to change phone now.... my oh my....Vietnamese economy rice, which serves roast meat, grilled meat, meat pate, fried meat, stewed meat, curry meat.... well, you get the idea.
This is an aubergine, or eggplant to some. It's stuffed with fish paste. Oh, and notice the rice. It's known as broken rice. Generally the grains are half the fragrant rice we get back home.
On this beach, everything's a money making opportunity. From the deck chairs and umbrellas that had to be rented, to the kites and balls and what nots for sale.
Oh, and the various peddlers of fruits, spring rolls, grilled seafood, eggs, trinkets, drinks and perhaps the most bizarre, fortune telling.
The strangest, is the edge of the beach where a long line of makeshift stalls-on-wheels provide instant cooked seafood.
Ermm.... whilst the place is quite interesting to visit, I'd seriously recommend that you stay away from the food, unless you have a remarkly strong stomach, or a deathwish.Earlier in my blog, I wrote about a delicacy of this town with some pictures posted. Now I get to taste the real deal....
Breakfast, at a place that visitors to Vung Tau must go - 14, Nguyen Truong To Street
Greens again, with fish sauce and sliced lotus stem. 
This is how it is prepared
This is how it's prepared. A mass gathering of ladies around a wood stove, flipping the caps one at a time.
The plate's full of oil, but somehow you dont really feel it with all those greens that goes with it.
And this is how it should be eaten
First, you fold the green in two, and add the condiments. Next, in goes the banh khot.
Then, you tuck the greens in neatly, and dip the whole thing in the fish sauce.
Lastly, open your mouth, and Aaaaarrrrrmmmmm............ Yum yum!
