Ho Chi Minh City - Day 2

On working day 2, we follow the salesrep to visit the doctors in hospital in the morning... at noon, we stop at a restaurant to have lunch... my best lunch during the trip...

This is a sweet desert made from coconut...

And the inside is green bean paste... like those found in 'ang ku kuih'...

This is actually very tiny little clams... so many of them... and it taste super great... our colleagues told us that to get the clams out of it shell... since it is so little, it is impossible to open one by one... so they cook the thing in hot water and shake it in a net... and the clams will just fall of the shell like that...

This is how u eat it... the thing you scoop with is like biscuit... made from flour I think... it's tasteless but eat it with the clams... yums~

This is the lotus seed fried rice... very fragrant...


I ordered this... some kind of noodle... forget call what.. there's pork on top, something like sausage... the noodle are actually dry... so you add some fish sauce and mix it... and I tell you... it tasted awesome... the pork is so juicy...

This is a desert drink... it's actually longan with lotus seed in the middle... not bad but kinda sweet...

Since we follow the salesrep around for a day... so we went back to the hotel kinda early... during the night, we went to the shopping center called Big C... at first my colleague keep saying Big C Big C, I thought is Big Sea... as in the ocean until I went there... it's actually a 'C'... swt...

This is Lotteria, Vietnam's own McD.. sort of... they don't have McD in Vietnam... but we saw KFC and Pizza Hut...

The burger is only so so nia... kinda dry...

After dinner we went shopping a while... there is hell lot of people buying stuff... almost can't walk... then we went back to the hotel... and remembered we had a free drink at the hotel bar...



This is my supper... hahaha...the yogurt drink is from the super market... this is Vietnam own yogurt... damn nice... very thick unlike those selling in Malaysia... love it... but cannot bring back... scared spoil... sad~

The bread is bought from Big C also... one of the stores... I shared with a colleague... Vietnam is very famous for their pork bread... although the bread is kinda hard... but it is nice..

The last post next... leaving Vietnam soon.. sad sad~
