Hanoi - I planned to have an early dinner with good fresh spring roll before leaving for home tommorrow. So, I headed downstairs and asked the concierge where the best fresh spring roll are - he was not sure but directed me to Quan An Ngon. A popular restaurant for both local Hanoi and tourist.
The taxi fare cost 28,000 dong and the restaurant is located @ 18 Phan Boi Chau. It was crowded when I when at about 6pm, waited for a while and was given a seat with 2 joint tables. After a while, a group of 3 Japanese came and the waiters split it into 2 tables. A while later whilst I was eating my fresh spring roll, the waiters gave the seats in front of me to 2 local vietnamese - how rude I thought these waiters are?
Even in Singapore, we asked permission whether anyone is seating before taking the seat.
I was very uncomfortable throughout my seat - it is like paying for restaurant food but in a glorified hawker centre. In actual fact, it was there were many Hawkers all around the restaurant in an open concept.
It is a once a visit experience and never to visit again.

Nha Hang Ngon in Hanoi
Hanoi - This is the sister restaurant of the one I tried in HCMC. This time for lunch, I was a bit adventurous and tried their fried spring roll wrapped in cabbage and bamboo shoot noodle. I really do not like the Bamboo shoot noodle the extremely strong smell of the bamboo shoot was a turn off.
Located @ 26 Tran Hung Dao Road a short walk from Hilton Opera Hotel
