Tonight’s dinner-tainment was provided by Bookworm’s Coffee, a
small little nook near the corner of Bui Vien and Do Quang Dau Street in the
Backpacker’s area of Ho Chi Minh City.
Patrick and I played Trivia Pursuit over a delicious British-style meal
of Steak Pie (for him) and Fish n’ chips with mushy peas (pour moi). Although my trivia pursuit knowledge was
highly lacking, the food’s taste wasn’t! I finally satisfied my craving for
fish n’ chips, a nice change from typical Vietnamese fish dishes that require
you to pick through many thread-thin fish bones.
Dish of the day: British Fish n’ Chips
Where it’s found: Bookworm’s Coffee (4 Do Quang Dau street, Pham Ngu Lao Ward,
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam)
Breaking it down: Fried battered fish, thick home cut fried, tartar
sauce, mushy peas and lime (and of course, they have the malt vinegar, don’t
you worry!)
And of course Patrick gets THIS question when we're IN Vietnam. "In what country is pho a local dish?" Hmm that's a toughie!
