Good afternoon everybody, it's Cory here.
I am in the Cau Giay district of Hanoi city, here in Vietnam.
So this street is called Duy Tan, it's not a very long street.
But it's lined by a lot of corporate kind of buildings and it's nice to see this area
being developed slowly. You can see a lot of buildings in and around the neighborhood
and they're under construction. And I wanted to share what lunch time looks like here in Cau Giay.
All around the world, office workers love their lunch breaks.
In Hanoi, it's no different.
I've been working in this area for over a month now, and one of my favorite things to do
is people watch during my lunch break.
People usually leave in groups from their office to eat at any one of the many restaurants across the street.
Most will eat quickly and go straight into chill mode.
There are dozens of cafes around to cater to everyone's need for caffeine and relaxation.
This all sounds like a normal lunch in any major city around the world, right?
Well there's one thing that stands out to me as uniquely Vietnamese
and it's all the sidewalk chilling.
Little plastic stools and tables on the sidewalk offer sunflower seeds to snack on
and iced tea to sip on.
Workers chat with one another, play on their phones, and lounge about until it's time to head back to
their office for a power nap. Vietnam definitely goes into siesta mode at noon.
There's also quite a number of vendors selling fresh fruit right from their bicycles and carts.
It's a great way to buy something healthy to munch on back at the office.
The hustle and bustle of lunch break finishes just as quickly as it started.
The surrounding neighborhood quickly quiets down as people migrate back to work.
So that's it guys, I hope you guys enjoyed what a normal weekday lunch break looks like here in Hanoi city.
