Vietnamese Tapas



Although Seth was able to steer clear of the catfish stomach, horse-kebobs, pig-ear salad and fried sparrows, he could not resist the urge to try the crickets (fried in pork fat, of course). The flavor was decent, but ultimately the texture proved to be a little too much.

Off to Halong Bay tomorrow (off the coast of Northern Vietnam) for an overnight boat trip...putting on the dramamine patches now.

  1. Crickets mmm tasty. I know what you make for dinner when you get back. Will you guys be able to see the Total solar Eclipse tomorrow or are you to far south? It will be the longest one of the century. I think you guys should be able to see it at least partially. It should be awesome from the boat without any buildings around.

  2. Fried Sparrows? I can't believe that the great sparrow hunter didn't try'em.
