The smoothie bar.

This is where I ended a number of my evenings while in Hanoi. Not being a huge drinker it was the perfect place to hang out with my beer drinking mates who were sitting on the equally silly little plastic chairs at the 'Bia Hoi' stall next to us.

The very nice smoothie lady would concoct something that tasted great, whizz it in the blender that you can see here (the lights on the whole street dimmed when she plugged it in!) and Voila! Yummy smoothie. Her kids were cute too.
