Vietnamese Dining Experience

When i was in Vietnam, the sales guy brought me to various fine dining places to enjoy the authentic vietnamese cuisine or mayb some of it, fusion of french-vietnamese food...
somehow, most of the restaurant are in vietnamese name, hence i could hardly recall them!
all i can say is that most of such restaurant are nicely decorated with western interior
very Hanoi-style...
though the interior looks western, it has some influence of local taste...just like their food
the below was my plate for breakfast, taken from their buffet line with lotsa choices ranging from southern, eastern and western
and i m gonna miss it!
On my second day, the sales guy took me and a few biz partners to this cafe located at the heart of Hanoi city.
the below picture shows the sideway walk, and some street vendors will sell their items from the basket as they travel on feet.
some stalls outside the place, along the pathway
inside the restaurant, i ordered ice blended mango for a hot day
and the set lunch that i ordered...it tasted so-so only...the pork chop was too dry and hard!
thankfully the lousy lunch has been compensated with a hearty dinner of 4 dishes comprising of vege, beancurd, fish and beef...
i was too hungry then to snap picture of each and every dishes 
my hearty meal was supplemented with cashew nuts and Vietnamese iced coffee, yummielicious!
till then, bon appetit!
