A Vietnamese Meal
An extraordinary meal at lunchtime served at Quan 95, a restaurant in Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City. Cost - $6.00 USD. Care to guess how much this would run in the States? http://youtu.be/jP6HA_i3SSY
Outtakes
Here's another video of old downtown Daejeon, shot during the hottest summer on record.
