                    Meeting up at a local (for them at least 😆) brewery with @EdH @doubletee and @Nocturama later today, and then have a Vietnamese food truck on.

                    I'll update as to how it compares to the real deal!

                    I've consciously avoided Vietnamese food in the UK in the past so not be disappointed, but I have high hopes for this one after checking out their website 🙏

                      @T4920 I’m lucky enough to have one of my sons friends at school who is Vietnamese and the food parcels we get once a week and even more are amazing
                      I’m torn between Vietnamese or Thai for my favourite cuisine

                      My wife by birth is Indonesian but came to OZ at 3 months old so unfortunately can’t cook for shit in terms of Asian food

                        @Brian I think Thai takes the number one spot for me, that's why I go back there year after year. Khao Soi is my absolute favourite meal in the world, and the fact you can find on every street corner in Chiang Mai for about £2 including a beer makes the 30 hour round trip so worth it!

                        I've been to every South East Asian country apart from Myanmar, but Indonesian food was the only cuisine I didn't find particularly memorable.

                        My most memorable experience food-wise out there was buying a couple of Balut Eggs down some back alley in Cambodia, and physically not being able to put it in my mouth!

                        The German guy I was with chowed his down like it was nothing, but I was so repulsed by the look/smell of it that my body and mind went into self-preservation mood and i just couldn't bring myself to try it, as much as I usually pride myself on being adventurous with food haha...

                        @Mizmazzle you could probably find one in Vietnam if you were so inclined...

                                      Thanks for all the comments, fellas. We are absolutely loving it here. Phong Nha was really special. We arrived to Ninh Binh Trang An a few days ago. Another epic slice of beauty in this place!!

                                      Our favorite dog friend. He led us on a hike around the countryside and chilled with us while around our homestay.
