We walk near the Reunification Palace. I do not recall seeing this building, the surrounding gardens or parks during our last trip.
As we continue walking by the Reunification Palace, Valerie spots Quán Ăn Ngon on the other side of the street. Valerie and I dined at their Ha Noi location during our culinary tour...and, since it is time for lunch, we decide to give this one a try.
The Ho Chi Minh City location seems much more like a restaurant, but retains the individual stations where specific items are prepared.
Soursop (mang cau) shakes! The perfect beverage for a hot and humid day like today. It is amazing that none of the places we visited in the north offered this tasty beverage (and the shakes here are so much better than the ones we can find back home)
Valerie has a Bún Thịt Nướng Chả Giò
Having recently tried the Cambodian version, I order Bo Luc Lac (a.k.a. Vietnamese "Shaking" Beef). I preferred the version I had at La Residence d'Angkor
I am not sure what Michel is taking a photo of, but he is using a *gasp* NIKON!
Valerie knows how much I enjoy visiting Bến Thành Market on a hot day (no air conditioning). We do not stay long
Chôm chôm! (Rambutan!)
