Vietnamese curry - a very watery curry, with Duck Blood Cake (鸭血糕) and basil leaves. The baguette stole the show, so crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Heard that rice flour does the trick #vietnam #vietnam2014 #street #food
Some food just deserve the solo shot #moneyshot #vietnam #street #food
XO Food Tour - this bike tour brought us to the various districts in Saigon, away from the touristy central district. Food was good, but not spectacular. We had Beef Noodle ( not Pho), some BBQ mutton which district 8 is renowned for, and seafood in district 4. The clam with peanut and salt is sick, probably the best thing I had for the night. What I enjoyed more is the history behind each district, and how the guide introduced us to what each district is famous for. Not the typical in-your-face-Vietnam-food but local street food nonetheless. And I realise that you can turn anything into Vietnamese by pairing it with basil leaves.
And oh, I finally tried the duck egg embryo!!! Wasn't as gross as I thought, was much harder than I imagined it to be for an embryo :) #foodie #achievementunlocked #eatdieme #vietnam #street #food #danielinhochiminhcity #day1 #biketour #vietnam2014
Street food tour by Back of the Bike - I think I enjoyed riding on the bike more than the food. 5 stops in 4 hours. Food's pretty awesome, but riding at the back of the bike is a rare chance to see the locals, away from the busy districts. Snapping away on the bike proved to be more difficult that it looks, especially in Vietnam where no one observes any traffic rules. Cars and bikes need to learn to chill, they just keep honking the second the traffic light turns green.
My fav gotta to be the papaya salad with beef jerky, and the Vietnamese Baguette stuffed with 9 different kind of meat. It's like Subway, but more wicked and down to earth.
Going for part 2 in 20mins!
