North-Western Vietnam

Vietnam's northwestern mountain range bordering China is inhabited by ethnic minority groups such as the Flower Hmong, the Black Hmong and the Black Thai, who still dress in their traditional attires. The burping dog ventured there to explore the colourful tribal markets that the region is famous for.

ok to regale us with plebian fare, now onto something culinarily more exciting!

[burpingdog]

We shall leave the haute cuisine reviews to darkobsidian!

In any case, what is considered plebian fare in Vietnam would be featured in the menu of chi chi places in Singapore like Indochine! And at 10 times the price too!

Besides, our restaurant meals have not been as fulfilling as our street meals...

Well, much depends on how well you eat and where you choose to stay. And needless to say, we don't know how much shopping you plan to do... For just land transport, accommodation and food, we manage on $250 or less per week per person.
