Food Joint – Hanoi, Vietnam

Photo of the Day – Food Joint – Hanoi, Vietnam

First, the food. Imagine it, you are walking the streets of Hanoi in Northern Vietnam looking for a place to grab an afternoon “lunch” – in this case, you’ll most likely be in search of Pho, the deliciously simple Vietnamese Noodle Soup. Unlike traditional restaurants with frontage, menus in the window and a door, you’ll have an endless selection of Vietnamese style sidewalk cafes. Built of plastic tables and chairs and literally taking up the entire sidewalk, these food joints are the place to go for authentic Vietnamese street food.

Secondly, the scooters. Oh, the scooters! It is not cars that clog the streets, but instead an endless number of scooters that take one to six people zipping through the streets.

So, hop on a scooter and start searching for the best Vietnamese street food!
