about the venue: Kamon

Really great place for Japanese Pancake. I was told by Japanese friends that it was their specialty.

Really great food and nice staff.

I've been there already 3 times and was never disappointed.

Highly recommended!

about the venue: Hung Long Minimart (Xuan Dieu)

"very small, but you can find quite a lot, and the price is descent, not like other places on Xuan Dieu.

A smaller version of L'place but cheaper."

about the venue: Just Massage

I received a gift certificate to get a massage there, and all i have to say is that i will go back for sure.

It was very nice, clean and quiet.
The person was very attentive checking if his strength was to my liking.

I'm not a professional, but for once i got a real massage in Hanoi. And no additional "extra services" were offered to me. Which was very appreciated. Just pure relaxation.

That is why i gave a 5 stars.

If you are after a good relaxing massage, justmassage is the place to go.

Just be careful when you go there as it is hard to find.

Once you turn on Van Bao from Kim Ma, take a right on Van Phuc street, at the ned of the street take a left on the lane just before the hotel standing on the left sidewalk; then another left and here you are.

about the venue: Kitchen

I'm going there regularly, and found a nice place to grab a quick bite to eat.
Nothing fancy, they don't pretend anyways.
The staff is quite friendly.

As for the food it's quite good. i'm not sure if it's because i have been in Hanoi for years, but reading some comment, all i have to say is that it's impossible to have high expectation in Vietnam when it comes to service and quality consistency.

So i'd say that it's a good place overall.

And WIFI is available!

about the venue: DK Computer

One of the first real computer shop to me, no bargaining for hours, no hidden second hand product. no hidden price.
Prices are all tagged, so you pay the same price as everybody else (that feels good actually!).

Good choice of components. They have already build computers or you can literally pick and choose and they'll put it together for you.

The really have all parts needed for a computer, as well as laptop, printers and external devices.

Their English is not so great but they are so helpful that you tend to forget about that.

I went there 3 times and was satisfied every single time.

A plce to go when in need of computer stuff

about the venue: Nutz

I'm surprised nobody reviewed it yet.

first: Nutz must have the most expensive drinks in Hanoi, and i am not kidding. They almost double their price in a matter of a couple of month.

Since one of the big club of hanoi got shut down by the police, the crowd moved to the nutz bar to make it a very busy bar with often fight.

Be aware that this place has a dressing code, which is applied depending on more how you look and how you are.

This place used to be a nice spot for a night cap or relax drink, but really became sleazy.

So unless you wanna find company ;) for the night and/or waste an awful amount of money on drinks (more than 100 000VND for a simple and light whiskey-coke); you better off going somewhere else.

about the venue: Noc Bar - La Scala

Definitely the best view of Hanoi.

Could not vouch for the food as i did not had dinner there, but it's a good place to change from the old quarter area to have a drink with friends and enjoy the view.
