Rating: Worth a Shot 評等：值得一嘗 Address: 1 Hang Manh, Ha Noi, Vietnam
Went to this joint due to the recommendation on this guide book: 因以上指南推薦而光顧此處。
According to many westerners, this place is also recommended in their books.
這家店很出名。很多老外也都慕名而來。
Warning: Gigantic portion. Recommendation: Visit this place with at least two people, as two can share one order. You can always order more if you are still hungry. Diana and Stefan did not take my advice, for they were "hungry." They regreted it.
One order is VND5,5000. Comes with a pile of dry noodle a HUGE pile of greens, a bowl of BBQ pork, and a plate of spring rolls. 警告：超大分量 建議：結伴造訪，先點一份。吃得完再追加。戴安娜和許蝶芳說他們很餓，沒聽我的勸，後悔了。
一份是越南盾55,000。含一大坨米線，一大堆生菜，一碗烤肉，一盤春卷。
Here is the demo on how to eat it:

As I sat there busy stuffing my face, came Diana and Stefan. For a moment, they thought I was the boss. My crapy German only got me as far as asking them whether they were Germans or Austrians. I did not understand Diana's praise on finding her accent was not pure German. So we switched to English. She is Polish. Another "Dzien dorbry" threw my plan on finding Polish assholes out of the window. They were so friendly that they invited me to join their table. It turned out that we ended up in this joint because recommendations in our guide books. They heard although Lonely Planet was good, however, Rough Guide is better in this particular case of Vietnam.
This happy couple are engaged. All the best to them.
Trekking near Sa Pa, Lao Cai, Vietnam, October 23, 2009
These two angels are from Singapore. The dudess is holding a Polaroid camera. While trekking through HMong villages, they take pictures of local minority people, with permission, of course. Then, they give away Polaroid photos to their models.
Polaroid films are not cheap, and their souls are absolutely priceless.
What's wrong with Polish? They are destroying my effort not being a racist! My theory is that people are just people. There are always assholes and cool folks. My problem is, all the Polish I have run into are all ultra nice. Especially Polish chicks. Not only they are super hot, but also easy going. Once I dated a Polish hotty. Although somehow the vibe did not feel quite right, but I absolutely like everything about her, including her looks, brains, and personality. Above all, I like the way she told me what she likes and what she dislikes upfront. No brain game at all.
I told one of my Polish friends how I felt towards their people, also my plan on finding Polish assholes by making a trip to Poland. My friend assured I would not be disappointed. Although I have not yet made the trip, I am still disappointed.
I ran into the following dudesses and dude in Ha Noi, Vietnam on October 20, 2009. A mere “Dzien dorbry” made them smiled this sweet. This dude was even so considerate and offered me his position in the picture. "Perhaps you would like to have a picture with the ladies?" No, thanks. The picture looks much nicer with you, dude!
Guess my disappointment is going to last much longer.
We were "harrassed" by locals trying to sell us all kinds of stuff. A gentleman shared his experience in India.
An Indian man was very persistant. He eventually lost his patience. He looked straight into the Indian's eyes and said "No! I am not buying from you! You go away!"
The Indian did not back off. He answered "This is my job. I have a family to feed. This is what I do 16 hours a day, seven days a week. No! I am not going away!"
That gentleman realized that Indian was an honest man trying to make his living. He still did not buy anything from him, but they continued to have a good chat in a respectful manner for more than 10 minutes.
October 23, 2009, in a HMong village near Sapa, Lao Cai, Vietnam.
A very wise lady looked kindly into the eyes of a little HMong girl, and said "No, I am not buying from you. If I buy from you, then you are going to stay out of school, and those who go to school are going to feel punished. Go back to school."

Ok... enough bad jokes already. Here are some basic techniques:
Parasite: Find the most attractive local girl in sight, and walk along side with her. Position yourself in a way so that she is practically your personal human shield. Do NOT pay attention to the traffic. Instead, focus your attention on your girl, and keep your position in sync with her. Theory:
If the chick is hot enough to stop the traffic, you want to be seen with her. You do not want to be run over while the driver drooling over the hot chick. Besides, due to the execution of this technique, the hotter the chick, the more pleasant the experience, unless you are, unfortunately, a homosexual, in this case.
The locals know how to negotiate through the traffic better than you. If you are not confident on doing the job yourself, trust the experts.
The drivers want to miss people, not running them over. If they must run over someone, then the less the number, the better. By walking along side with someone, you increase the stake and visibility.
If a driver has no choice but to go your way, hopefully, the human shield is going to reduce the impact, more or less.
Note: Never use this technique on anyone who appears to be upset and might have a death wish.
Super Ego: Do not pay attention to the traffic. Look straight ahead, and walk at a steady speed. Do NOT walk too fast. Theory: Drivers want to miss you. By applying this technique, your action becomes predictable, hence easier to miss. This might sound crazy, but if you pay attention, you are going to find this technique is used by locals in many countries. On that note, AVOID dodging the traffic and any sudden moves, for these makes your action pattern becomes unpredictable. A driver might run you over while trying to avoid you.
Use the Force: This is the most challenging and exciting method. You negotiate the traffic by yourself. Try to predict the movements of the traffic. Negotiate your way through eye contacts with drivers. Note: Never appear to be indecisive. If you are not sure if there is a mutual understanding between you and the driver, stand still to allow the driver to avoid you. Pay attention to the vehicle. If the driver try to do emergency brake and skidding towards you, then dodge, for in this case, the action of the vehicle becomes predictable.
Additional Preparation: Pray to your God(s), go to your temple/church, be respectful to local God(s)/religion(s), and be nice to other folks, for luck is always involved in Asian street crossing. Indians call it Karma. I view good deeds in terms of the butterfly effect in Chaos Theory. They just could be your ticket out of harms way, or through the Pearly Gate.

Divino y calmo sobre el mar volando el pajaro es un rey
Sus ojos miran el mundo triste Su alma llora de compasion La bella soledad
Legere et douce A en pleurer L'ivresse de pouvoir s'envoler
Diamantes de lune Sur l'eau qui dort C'est ton chemin de conquistador
Tes yeux ne voient que la bleu du ciel La terre a pose des chaines a tes ailes La terre a pose des chaines a tes ailes Pour te garder pres d'ell.

How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain As the changing of seasons prepares me again For the long bitter nights and the wild Winter day My heart has grown cold my love stored away My heart has grown cold my love stored away
I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go I've taken the pain no girl should endure But faith can move mountains of that I am sure Faith can move mountains of that I am sure
Get me through December A promise I'll remember Just get me through December So I can start again
No divine purpose brings freedom from sin And peace is a gift that must come from within I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Get me through December A promise I'll remember Just get me through December So I can start again Natalie is a musician/singer from Cape Breton, Canada playing mostly modern and traditional Irish music.
"I am stupid and inconsiderate." Have you been making this anouncement with the flash light of your camera?
Flash light is anonying. If you have been using it without discretion, chances are, you are anouncing you are a moron on top of being an asshole. In most ocassions, using night mode works much better than flash light, in addition to being considerate.
The physics of sight and photography is receiving the light bouncing off the object, or the light directly from the light source. When there is not sufficient lighting, a flash light acts as a light source, emits light, and have the light be bounced back from the object to the camera len. This means two things:
A flash light cannot brighten a light source: When using the flash light, the camera is ready to receive the darn strong light reflected back, hence less light is taken in. This means, flash light is usless if you try to take photographs of fireworks, stars, the effect of lighting from light sources other than your flash light, and/or any other kinds of light sources, unless your flash light is not working properly. For example, you cannot use flash light to photograph a picture shown on a movie screen, unless that screen is outside the range of your flash light. On this note, here comes the second point...
Flash light is useless if the object is out of the range of your flash light: Using a small digital camera flashing mountains afar away illustrates nothing but your IQ.
In most cases, flash light makes the photograph looks unatural. I recommend not setting the flash light on "auto",and use it mostly when you want to compensate the backlighting.
Please note that I am not a professional photographer. This is just my two cents as a geek who is nuts about physics.“我是個混蛋加笨蛋”你曾經用你照相機的閃光燈如此昭告天下嗎？
I saw this amazing show this afternoon. I did not video tape it, for I figured some cool dude would have posted it on YouTube already. Besides, I would either have to commit the sin of stealing, or pay VND60,000 to use my video recorder inside the theatre. I strongly recommend getting the first class seat, which costs VND60,000 at the time of writing.
Last night, a talk show was promoting tourism in Penghu Islands. One of the guests is a Penghu native. He says people of Penghu love their home town. Although most people have moved out of the town, very few people are willing to sell their houses passed down from their ancestors.
Mom told me that grandpa's comment on Penghu folks. He said although they were poor, they were smart and hard working people. When they left Penghu for Taiwan, every one of them carried a scale. Upon arrival, they headed to the fish market to buy fishes with the little money they had. Then they sold the fish in the city by the side walk. They kept going back to the market to buy more fish. Once sufficient fund had been accumulated, they moved on to other businesses.
Va ti aspettero Il fiore nel giardino segna il tempo Qui disegnero il giorno poi del tuo ritorno Sei cosi sicura del mio amore Da portarlo via con te Chiuso nelle mani che ti porti al viso Ripensando ancora a me E se ti servira lo mostri al mondo Che non sa che vita c'e Nel cuore che distratto sembra assente Non sa che vita c'e In quello che soltanto il cuore sente Non sa.
Qui ti aspettero E rubero i baci al tempo Tempo che non basta a cancellare Coi ricordi il desiderio che Resta chiuso nelle mani che ti porti al viso Ripensando a me E ti accompagnera passando le citta da me Da me che sono ancora qui E sogno cose che non so di te Dove sara che strada fara il tuo ritorno Sogno
Qui ti aspettero E rubero i baci al tempo Sogno Un rumore il vento che mi sveglia E sei gia qua.
-----------------------------------------
Go, I will wait for you The flowers in the garden mark the time Here I will draw the day of your return You are so sure of my love You take it away with you Cupped in your hands when you touch your face As you still think of me And if you need to, you can show the world The world that doesn't know what life there is in an uncaring absent heart Doesn't know what life there is In that only the heart can feel Doesn't know.
Here I will wait for you And steal kisses from time Time is not enough to erase The memories and the desire that Remains closed in your hands That you bring to your face. You still think of me It will follow you and passing me in the city I'll still be here Dreaming of things that I don't know about you. Where is the road that You will take on your return I dream
Here I will wait for you And steal kisses from time I dream A noise, the wind awakens me And you're already here.

Yes I know My love, that you and I Are together briefly For just a few moments In silence As we look out of our windows And listen To the sky And to a world That's awakening And the night is already far away Already, far away
Look at this world Spinning with us Even in the dark Look at this world Spinning for us Giving us hope and some sun, sun sun
My love, you are you my love I hear your voice, and I listen to the sea. It sounds just like your breathing And all the love you want to give me This love That is there, hidden Hidden among the waves All the waves in the world just like a boat that....
Look at this world Spinning with us Even in the dark Look at this world Spinning for us Giving us hope, and some sun, sun, sun, Some sun, sun, sun.
Look at this world Spinning with us Giving us some sun, Mighty sun Mighty sun Mighty sun
Romanza
Già la sento, già la sento morire, però è calma sembra voglia dormire; poi con gli occhi lei mi viene a cercare, poi si toglie anche l’ultimo velo, anche l’ultimo cielo, anche l’ultimo bacio. Ah, forse colpa mia, ah, forse colpa tua, e così son rimasto a pensare. Ma la vita, ma la vita cos’è tutto o niente, forse neanche un perchè. Con le mani lei me viene a cercare, poi mi stringe, lentamente mi lascia, lentamente mi stringe, lentamente mi cerca. Ah, forse colpa mia, ah, forse colpa tua, e così sono rimasto a guardare. E lo chiamano amore, e lo chiamano amore, e lo chiamano amore una spina nel cuore che non fa dolore. È un deserto questa gente con la sabbia in fondo al cuore e tu, che non mi senti più, che non mi vedi più, avessi almeno il coraggio e la forza di dirti che sono con te. (Ave Maria, ave Maria.) Ah, forse colpa mia, ah, forse colpa mia, e così son rimasto così son rimasto così.
Già la sento che non può più sentire; in silenzio se n’è andata a dormire, è già andata a dormire.
When I was a child: Running in the night, Afraid of what might be
Hiding in the dark, Hiding in the street, And of what was following me...
the hounds of love are hunting me I've always been a coward, And I don't know what's good for me.
(Well) Here I go! It's coming for me through the trees. Help me, someone! Help me, please!
Take my shoes off, And (i will) throw them in the lake, And I'll be Two steps on the water.
I found a fox Caught by dogs. He let me take him in my hands.
His little heart, It beats so fast, And I'm ashamed of running away
From nothing real-- I just can't deal with this, But I'm still afraid to be this,
Among your hounds of love, And feel your arms surrounding me. I've always been a coward, I never know what's good for me.
(well),here I go! Don't let me go! Hold me down! It's coming for me through the trees. Help me, darling Help me, please!
Take my shoes off And throw them in the lake, And I'll be Two steps on the water.
I don't know what's good for me. I don't know what's good for me. I need la la la la la ya yo ya yo Your love!
Take your shoes off And throw them in the lake!
Do you know what I really need? Do you know what I really need? I need la la la la la yeah!
Running Up That Hill
It doesn't hurt me. Do you want to feel how it feels? Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me? Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making? You, It's you and me.
And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building. Say, If I only could, oh...
You don't want to hurt me, But see how deep the bullet lies. Unaware, I'm tearing you asunder. Ooh, There is thunder in our hearts.
Is there so much hate for the ones who love? Tell me we both matter don't we?
You, It's you and me, It's you and me who won't be unhappy.
And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building. Say, If I only could, oh...
You, It's you and me, It's you and me who won't be unhappy.
Come on baby, come on darling Let me steal this moment from you now Oh come on angel, come on come on darlin' Let's exchange the experience oh...
And if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems...
Say if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems...
Say if I only could, I'd make a deal with God, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems...
Say, If I only could... Oh... Be running up that hill, With no problems...
If only I could, Be running up that hill...
Cloudbusting
I still dream of Organon. I wake up cryin'. You're making rain, And you're just in reach, When you and sleep escape me.
You're like my yo-yo That glowed in the dark. What made it special Made it dangerous, So I bury it And forget.
But every time it rains, You're here in my head, Like the sun coming out-- Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen. And I don't know when, But just saying it could even make it happen.
On top of the world, Looking over the edge, You could see them coming. You looked too small In their big, black car, To be a threat to the men in power.
I hid my yo-yo In the garden. I can't hide you From the government. Oh, God, Daddy-- I won't forget.
'Cause every time it rains, You're here in my head, Like the sun coming out-- Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen. And I don't know when, But just saying it could even make it happen.
It's you and me, Daddy.
It's you and me... Daddy---
It's you and me... Daddy---
E-yeah yeah yeah yeah yo-ohhhhhhhhhh
And every time it rains You're here in my head Like the sun coming out. Your son's coming out. Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen. And I don't know when, But just saying it could even make it happen.
Ooo-ohh, just saying it could even make it happen.
I'm Cloudbusting Daddy.
Your son's coming out. Your son's coming out.
這種感覺，在二二八、靖鄉及白色恐怖時期，很多小孩都曾感受過吧？
Moving
Moving stranger, Does it really matter, As long as you're not afraid to feel? Touch me, hold me. How my open arms ache! Try to fall for me.
How I'm moved. How you move me With your beauty's potency. You give me life. Please don't let me go. You crush the lily in my soul.
Moving liquid Yes, you are just as water. You flow around all that comes in your way. Don't think it over, It always takes you over, And sets your spirit dancing.
How I'm moved. How you move me With your beauty's potency. You give me life. Please don't let me go. You crush the lily in my soul.

Our little army boy Is coming home from B.F.P.O. I've a bunch of purple flowers To decorate a mammy's hero.
Mourning in the aerodrome, The weather warmer, he is colder. Four men in uniform To carry home my little soldier.
"What could he do? Should have been a rock star." But he didn't have the money for a guitar. "What could he do? Should have been a politician." But he never had a proper education. "What could he do? Should have been a father." But he never even made it to his twenties. What a waste -- Army dreamers. Ooh, what a waste of Army dreamers.
Tears o'er a tin box. Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know, Like a chicken with a fox, He couldn't win the war with ego.
Give the kid the pick of pips, And give him all your stripes and ribbons. Now he's sitting in his hole, He might as well have buttons and bows.
"What could he do? Should have been a rock star." But he didn't have the money for a guitar. "What could he do? Should have been a politician." But he never had a proper education. "What could he do?

We were working secretly For the military. Our experiment in sound, Was nearly ready to begin. We only know in theory What we are doing: Music made for pleasure, Music made to thrill. It was music we were making here until
They told us All they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone From a distance. So we go ahead, And the meters are over in the red. It's a mistake in the making.
From the painful cry of mothers, To the terrifying scream, We recorded it and put it into our machine.
Then they told us All they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone From a distance. So we go ahead, And the meters are over in the red. It's a mistake in the making.
It could feel like falling in love. It could feel so bad. But it could feel so good. It could sing you to sleep
?"I'll bet my mum's gonna give me a little toy instrument!"?
But that dream is your enemy.
We won't be there to be blamed. We won't be there to snitch. I just pray that someone there Can hit the switch.
But they told us All they wanted Was a sound that could kill someone From a distance. So we go ahead, And the meters are over in the red. It's a mistake we've made.
Hmm hmm hmm, hmm hmm hmm. And the public are warned to stay off.

I see the people working, And see it working for them. And so I want to join in, But then I find it hurts me.
Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap. Some say that knowledge is something that you never have.
I see the people happy, So can it happen for me? 'Cause when I am unhappy, There's nothing that can move me.
Some say that knowledge is something that you never have. Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap. Some say that heaven is hell. Some say that hell is heaven.
I must admit, just when I think I'm king, (I just begin.) Just when I think I'm king, I must admit, (I just begin.) Just when I think I'm king, (I just begin.)
I've been doing it for years. My goal is moving near. It says, "Look! I'm over here." Then it up and disappears.
Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap. Some say that knowledge is ho-ho-ho-ho.
I want to be a lawyer. I want to be a scholar. But I really can't be bothered. Ooh, just gimme it quick, gimme it, gimme gimme gimme gimme!
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho. Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho. Some say that heaven is hell. Some say that hell is heaven.
I must admit, just when I think I'm king, (I just begin.) Just when I think I'm king, I must admit, (I just begin.) Just when I think everything's going great, (I just begin,) Hey, I get the break, Hey, I'm gonna take it all-- (I just begin.) When I'm king-- (-- just begin.)
In my dome of ivory, A home of activity, I want the answers quickly, But I don't have no energy.
I hold a cup of wisdom, But there is nothing within. My cup, she never overfloweth, And 'tis I that moan- and groaneth.
Some grey and white matter, "Give me the karma, mama!" I'm coming up the ladder, "A jet to Mecca," I'm coming up the ladder, "Tibet or Jeddah, Up the ladder... "To Salisbury, A monastery, The longest journey, Across the desert, Across the weather, Across the elements, Across the water!"

It was built by the first emperor before he conquored the rest of China. It was much older than the Great Wall. The Great Wall we see today was built in Ming Dynasty, not the original one built by the first emperor.
Great Wall and Pyramid are nothing but a pile of rock these days. They have lost their functionality of their original design. Dujiangyan is still fully function as designed.
From humanatarian point of view, it tamed the Ming River. Instead of flooding and killing people, Dujiangyan makes her water the land and feed people. Consider the number of people it has saved and fed over the years, it is indeed the greatest thing ever!
Instead of causing the first emperor tons of trouble each year, now this land feeds his people and army. Without Dujiangyan, it was unlikely for the first emperor to conquer the rest of China.
From technology point of view, Fish Mouth Levee generate and utilize whirlpools to drage the sand to the outer river. This is darn difficult fluid dynamic.
From engineering point of view, Dujiangyan was built in bronze age before the invention of gunpowder. Bottle-Neck Channel was built by burning firewood on the rock then cool it down by pouring cold water. Eventually the rock would cumble. It took 8 years of this painstaking process to open up the mountain for the Bottle-Neck Channel.
Not having a son is considered a great dishonour in Chinese culture. The officer in charge of building Dujiangyan, Li Bin, has only a daughter. Since Gods does not give him a son, the people do. People built the Two King Temple worshping Li Bin and his "son".
American registered the name Budweiser in the states. In fact, Budweise was a German city handed to Czechoslavia after WWII. It is now known as Ceske Budejovice. The fine brew produced over there is called Budvar.
這張照片是在斯洛伐克的口西且(Kosice)拍的。口西且原名卡撒(Kassa)，原屬匈牙利，但匈牙利在二次世界大暫時選錯邊，戰後卡撒因而被割給捷克斯洛伐克，改名口西且。後來捷克斯洛伐克又分裂為兩國。 The above picture was taken in Kosice, Slovakia. This town was called Kassa, and belong to Hungary. It was handed to Czechoslovakia after WWII as Huns picked the "wrong" side.

This is traditional healthy treats which is hard to find good ones these days. The trick of appreciating these dried fruits is to start with tiny bites.
You do not need to be adventurous to sample this vendor. The fillings are pork and veggies. In spite of their fame, I did not expect too much until I actually sampled their buns. It was instant addiction.
