The Vietnamese Breakfast

When I go to work, I often ask a motorbike driver to stop at the food stalls.
They begin to sell breakfast from around 5 am.


Vietnamese sandwich "Banh Mi"
(sunny-side up eggs, pickles, cucumbers, meats, herbs)

















I heard the baguette made from rice.
That's why the outside is firm, and inside is soft and sticky.

I like to have this sandwich with soy milk.






















They sell a small plastic bag soy milk.
I can't tie up the plastic bag with a rubber band like them.
It's never spill over.

You can choose cold or hot, add sugar or not...
I like hot soy milk with a little sugar.






If you want to eat more,
I recommend you the Vietnamese fried noodles "Mi Xao" or "Bun Xao"

Fried noodles "Mi xao"
(fried spring rolls, fried wan tan, fried tofu, some greens, rice vermicelli and fish sauce with chili)

















I loooooooove it!
I have this 4times/week but not tired of eating.

Taste them!

What is famous for in Vietnam?

Vietnam is a one of motorbike countries.

Every morning, I sit on behind my bike taxi "Xe om" to go my office.


The traffic light have a fanction of count down.
It's like a race!

I used to drive motorbike here.
But it was 3-4years ago so now I'm afraid of driving.

But then it's super-useful way here.
So I wanna try it.




I went to central of Ho Chi Minh City with my camera.

On the way there, I can meet some lovely scenes...


A coner of Pho Duc Chinh Street.

I like these windows.
And also I like these traffic sign.

It's cute, isn't it?


This is a office which relate to gavament.
I like such a Europe style building.

















Then I went to a beauty salon near my house.


Washing hair and pedicure  30,000VND ( 1.5USD )

It was the first time that I was washed my hair at a beauty salon in Vietnam.
...not so bad than I expected.

First of all, the hairdresser who worked there was lovely.




Today's dinner is Vietnameese wonton "Hoanh Thanh".


A small wonton bowl with rotus tea  20,000VND ( 1USD )
I love it!!!

When I was eatting it, a stranger came my table and she said,
" Can I drink this? "
 ( as she grip the pot of rotus tea on my table )
Then she drank it and smiled.

They are " kind of " friendly. haha
