I put a week of sitting on miniature plastic chairs whilst eating off tables barely above the floor behind me last night. Civilisation does exist in Hanoi!
My evening started with a Charlie Chaplin Martini at the Le Club Bar at the Sofitel Metropole. I then had an exquisite 'menu dégustation' at a fairly refined French restaurant, La Badiane.
Normally I would probably consider a 'menu dégustation' a bit of a con as the portion sizes are quite small and it is more heavily geared towards flavour and presentation (I like flavour and decent sized portions!). Anyway, this was perfect tonight as I'd been on a 3 hour lunch time food tour around the Old Quarter of Hanoi earlier in the day and really didn't need 'filling up'!
