Never eat at this place in Vietnam, my friends.I was staying at a hotel in Hanoi’s Old Quarter and went with my girl to have lunch at a restaurant near the hotel. We had fried chicken and pho. The total was 390,000 VND.In the evening, my girl didn’t want to go out, so I went to the same restaurant alone to get takeout. Knowing she liked fried chicken, I ordered that. While waiting, I saw something disturbing.When other customers left, there was a lot of leftover meat on their plates. The waiter staff collected it, and what looked like an assistant grandmother sorted through the meat pieces with chopsticks, putting them into a separate bucket. They then set that bucket aside. They noticed I was watching and became visibly nervous. I was already suspecting they were reusing leftovers .when my fried chicken order arrived, costing 250,000 VND.This was suspicious because my lunch which included two bowls of pho and other food, was only 390,000 VND, yet now just one portion of fried chicken cost 250,000 VND. I didn’t say anything and went back to the hotel.Back at the hotel, my suspicion led me to check the fried chicken. Sure enough, I found pieces that clearly looked like they had been previously eaten from and then re-fried.From that day on, my trip was ruined. Every mealtime was filled with doubt and fear, and I couldn’t enjoy eating anything.Be careful, my friends.Ps:sorry for my English.

You literally didn’t see them give you leftovers. Idk it seems like you’re assuming and imagining the worst case scenario.
Vietnam is about the adventure, not the sanitation. You know that bia hoi where you drank beer? The glasses are usually washed by a single dunk in a pot of water with no soap. I could go on and on about what you don’t see.
I was there last year and they over charged me and my group also as they were discussing the bill one of the waiters laughed out loud. I remember this place when you posted it
Chuyện thường tình.
390,000 for pho and chicken is daylight robbery. Wouldn’t have even gone there a first time, never mind second.
omg, that’s disgusting
That’s some exspensive chicken same price in canada.
I saw it the other day on beer street , grandma was rinsing the leftovers and putting the meat in a separate pot .
At least refrying kills all the germs😅
