Martin went to a spare rib
restaurant and tasted this horrible, rose beer from Saigon. The restaurant
is LIVINcollective, 77 Bạch Đằng, Tân Lập, Thành phố Nha Trang, Khánh Hòa.
Famous for its ribs Fish restaurant on the
pavement. |
 |
 |
This pink beer at LIVINcollective
was just like dishwater. But the spare ribs
lived up to their reputations. Recommended. |

The Pizza Company is also in
Vietnam. Another fish restaurant. |

 |
Alley Cafe.

 |
April 4:
Martin went condo-hunting. In this massive block, 40 stories high, Martin
found 2 condos. Very nice both, but too big for Martin.
The standard was very high. Here is the
bathroom. |
 |
 |
Bedroom. Watch the
video of the flat.
Livingroom. |

restaurant and had
wild pig or boar for supper. Nom Nuong và Bia hoi, Lô 29 , Tran
Nhat Duat noi dai,
telephone: 0702 79 18 79. |
 |
 |
This is a typical street restaurant
with all the tables on the pavement. The toilets were very nice and clean. The lovely
owner Nam, with a too lovely cleavage. Very distracting for male customers. |
 |
 |
Martin with the raw materials.
Martin waiting for the hotplate to turn hot. Gas fired. |
 |
 |
Nam, her friend and her 8 month old
baby boy. Huong serving Martin the wild pig. |
 |
 |
On the menu, you have kimchi or mak kimchi,
made with cut cabbage, radish, and scallions and a seasoned paste of red
pepper, garlic, ginger, sugar, and fish sauce, salted shrimp, or kelp
powder. This is strong stuff.
Martin asked for "not spicy" and the kimchi
was taken out. But they sprinkled the raw meat with chilly powder, making it
borderline hot for Westerners. Remember, always say "no chilly" in addition
to "not spicy". How to get from the
Railway Station of Nha Trang to Nam's restaurant. |
 |
 |
April 7th:
Outside Crazy Kom's where Martin will be teaching English.
Inside a rather primitive class room. The TV is very old. |
 |
