Office Lunch

Started to rain just before 12pm which meant I couldn't get out for lunch. So I decided to order lunch in for the first time ever. Ordering in is pretty common for employees in Vietnamese companies for two reason. First, they can avoid walking under the sun. Second, they can save time by staying in and eating quickly - which allows more time for siesta, which follows immediately after the meal.

Anyway, my office lunch was pretty alright. Got the tray of food below for just VND8000 = S$0.8 = US$0.50. Cool eh?



1. Green banana: looks can deceive - it's ripe on the inside.
2. Pack of soya sauce + 2 chillis
3. Plastic the food came in and some gnawed chicken bones (pic was taken halfway during lunch)
4. Tomato and cucumber salad
5. Yam or Tapioca soup - can't really tell what it was exactly...
6. Chicken cooked in dark sauce with ginger + rice
