About this edition
A journalist takes us on a colorful and spicy gastronomic tour through Viêt Nam in this entertaining, offbeat travel memoir Growing up in a small town in central England, Graham Holliday wasn't keen on travel. But in his early twenties, he saw a picture of Hà Ná»â„¢i that sparked his curiosity and propelled him halfway across the globe. Graham didn't want to be just a tourist in a foreign country, though; he was determined to live in it. An ordinary guy who liked trying interesting food, he moved to the capital city and embarked on a quest to find real Vietnamese food. In , he chronicles his odyssey in this enticing, unfamiliar land infused with sublime smells and tastes. Traveling through the back alleys and across the boulevards of Hà Ná»â„¢iâ€"where home cooks set up grills and stripped-down stands serve sumptuous fare on blue plastic furnitureâ€"he risked dysentery, giardia, and diarrhea to discover a culinary treasure trove that was truly unique. Graham shares every bite of the extraordinary fresh dishesâ€"pungent and bursting with flavorâ€"that he came to love in Hà Ná»â„¢i, Sà i Gòn, and the countryside. Here, too, are the remarkable people who became a part of his new life, including his wife, Sophie. Funny, charming, and always delicious, will inspire armchair travelers, those with curious palates, and everyone itching for a taste of adventure.
