My guide took me by car and then by walking through narrow street along many restaurants reminded me of a street in Paris and in Istanbul where there the street has a huge variety of restaurants offering foods from everywhere. There are no McDonalds inHanoi.
The one we went to upstairs into Aron with other foreigners, is this a good thing? All the waiters spoke good English or French. It was a smorgasbord type but you do not wait on your self, they bring you small dishes until you say stop. There are fairly long waits inbetween dishes so I was there for two hours. My guide had said he would be back in 45 minutes but I did think he would be mistaken. I did not get food until s30 minutes had passed.
Speaking of my guide he was born in'83. Married with one son And another on the way. His English is ok...accent could be improved. So I ask him to repeat words until I figure things out, he kept referring to. Penis. Which thought could not be right as he pointed out some architecture. Eventually I realized the letter L became N. and he was pointing to Pillars. He told me a lot about early times of 1500 years ago...going to a famous Pagoda. And then we went to another shrine where people were putting cooked chicken.or rooster onto alter. Lots of people praying. Lots of food on alters which if I u derstood him correctly would be taken away to be eaten
