Hanoi’s famed trackside cafés illegally reopen

The Hanoi Railway under the Vietnam Railways Corporation asked for assistance from the People’s Committees of Ba Dinh and Hoan Kiem Districts and related wards, where the encroachment has repeated, to handle the issue thoroughly.

Vendors started selling beverages along the corridor of the Hanoi – Dong Dang railway route, which snakes through several crowded neighborhoods across the two mentioned districts, around the beginning of 2018, according to the Hanoi Railway.

The operation of the coffee shops just inches from the active railway attracted foreign tourists and local people to this area to take photos and videos, especially when a train passed by.

The authorities implemented many drastic measures, including coercive clearance and making records of administrative violations, and the situation basically ceased in October 2019.

However, the Hanoi Railway saw the cafés resume operation along the railway route’s sections in Hang Bong, Cua Nam, and Dien Bien Phu Wards, though without encroaching upon the safety corridor, during an inspection on August 3, until the recent four-day break to celebrate Vietnam’s National Day (September 2).

The railway safety corridor violations in those areas have since recurred, with visitors gathering and photographing near the tracks again.

Red Vermicelli: Dak Lak’s Delicious Delicacy

Image
Buon Ma Thuot not only has premium coffee with a unique delicious taste, but also many other famous delicacies such as wine, marinated chicken, fragrant rice tubes, and especially the excellent red vermicelli. Red vermicelli is a popular specialty of Dak Lak. Although there are some similarities with vermicelli in the South, the famous red vermicelli in the “capital of coffee” is very different. It has big, firm vermicelli, similar to Southern beef vermicelli but slightly better, about the size of a chopstick, chewy and crispy. Different from sophisticated dishes like pho in Hanoi, vermicelli with fish in Quy Nhon, bun bo Hue, or vermicelli in Can Tho, Ban Me red vermicelli is extremely rustic, strange, and especially delicious. At first glance, red vermicelli is quite similar to crab vermicelli, but this dish is made from pure crab meat, pureed pork and fat, vegetables, bean sprouts, and of course, boiled quail eggs.
