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.

They were probably giving to some animals and you already had an idea in your head and found something that give you confirmation bias without any actual evidence. Please show up this piece of chicken that looked like it had obviously been chewed on
If I leave food ANYWHERE in the world.. even my own city.. I cut it up so it can’t be used again.
Ain’t no way u should pay 250k almost $10 for chicken … That’s a whole chicken and more
Animals close this restaurant 😡
Thanks for the caution!
i drank and eat in places where i saw rats going around outside. If they are outside, they are inside. What i learned in years of travelling and life in bars is that you never want to see the kitchen. It is not mom’s kitchen. Eat and drink. Most people wont die.
Thank you for posting this. The more I read about Vietnam, the less I want to visit it.
Omg they overcharged you too much
Waste not, want not! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sorry, I couldn’t resist. I have OFTEN wondered that myself but I don’t believe that this is what is happening. They often feed leftovers to their pets or their chickens, etc. This is my 9th trip and if I thought that’s what was happening I don’t think I’d would have ever returned. Maybe if you are that paranoid it would be best to travel elsewhere.
