My trip to Hanoi was not only sightseeing, but to eat as many types of food as I could. In addition to Vietnamese food, Vietnam is also renowned for its colonial French cuisines. I had a French lunch buffet (USD22) at Le Beaulieu, Metropole Hotel Hanoi. This French colonial hotel was established in 1901.
Vietnam is also the 2nd largest exporter of coffee after Brazil. Not surprisingly Vietnamese coffee is strong and delicious and the stainless steel coffee filter adds another novelty to coffee drinking.
