The scene on the street. Hanoi nightlife.

Hanoi street life.

This is what its all about in the evenings. Sat on the street with a beer and some food, and just watching the world go by. I could happily do this every single night i'm there.

You can get 4 beers for 20,000VND on the street. That is only 60 pence , or for our American brothers, that's only $1 USD, it is that cheap!!

And then the Police turn up, and every thing changes. All the little stools and tables disappear as there are actually on the street. Seems whatever the agreement is, they cant have their stools on the actual street. Then the police turn up, and they will take away any tables and chairs that violate the law/agreement!...........................

And then when the police have gone, the stools come back out onto the street, and are quickly filled with customers.....................................

You cant argue with the offer. Monday is a great day!!....................................

Street food is just as good as the beer on the street. This BBQ set only cost £2.50, and was more than enough for me. The old dear who was running the bar here even cooked most of the food for me.............................................

Hi,

 

Looks lively. Prefer my LOS cuties though.

Looks like a lively scene for Viets to socialize. Not much in the p4p category (sadly).

 

I just did a current exchange rate on the Heineken cost...40 baht or $1.07 USD per bottle. Wow! A drinker's paradise!
