Strange Encounter in Hanoi: Ish Meets Vietnam

So in the afternoon heat, I decided to take a walk around the new part of Hanoi City, the capital of Vietnam. I’ve already posted about the crazy streets filled with motorcycles. The entire city is bustling with action.

It comes with a toast filled with butter and Kaya spread, two soft boiled
