about the venue: R&R Tavern

I ordered a burger for delivery tonight and it was awful. The burger was like charcoal, the bun limp, and the fries soggy. To top it all off the price charged was 40% more than the website says. I won't eat here again.

The best latte I've had in the city easily. My nutella croissant today was great too, and I'm not even Australian. The inside is large and clean and very comfortable. Very large windows give great light and the chairs and couches are very comfortable. Free wifi, and attentive staff. It might be a little pricey for Hanoi, but worth it.

about the venue: Tran Muc

You know the food here is fresh because you can hear it barking in the back yard. The amount of food brought to your spot on the floor is huge. I didn't come close to finishing. I am positve that my leftovers became some other guest's dinner. Speaking of which, the guest's were very friendly and happy to see a foreigner joining them. Your "table" is a spot on the bamboo matted floor and some pieces of newspaper. The waiter will bring you 5 or 6 courses, each as mediocre as the previous. Dog itself doesn't have much flavor, and is rather fatty. I thought the liver was the worst, and the fried spring rolls the least bad. If you haven't tried dog yet, this place is probably as good as any other.

about the venue: Daluva

The atmoshere at Daluca is absolutely enchanting. Comfortable couches, pleasant music, and a contemporary décor that isn't tacky made for a very relaxing breakfast. I came in the middle of the week and was the only person there, so service was quick and what I would expect from a western restaurant. My latte was good and my only criticism of the food is tyt my eggs were nowhere close to over-easy like I ordered. I should probably not be eating eggs undercooked in Vietnam though, so no big deal. The bacon, beans and toast were all tasty and well-done.
