14-16 Nha Tho Street, Hanoi, Vietnam

Concierge "Run by American Jeff Richardson and his Vietnamese partner, Truong Viet Binh, Café Moca is a busy establishment near the city center."
Frommer's "For some good coffee and desserts, or to just sit, rest, and watch the world go by along busy Nha Tho Street, stop in at Moca Café, one of the city's popular traveler hangouts." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Moca is a trendy cafe that draws plenty of customers to savor its wide range of international cooking, with dishes ranging from Mexican to Bengali. "
Rough Guide "Located in the hip cathedral area, Moca’s huge picture windows are ideal for people-watching over a mug of the creamiest, frothiest café latte in town, and prices aren’t steep either."

14 Pho Cha Ca, Hanoi, Vietnam
From $5/night
Concierge "While the fish cooks, diners toss basil, dill, cilantro, and scallions into the pan then anoint the fish with various piquant condiments."
Insight Guides "One of Hanoi’s most famous dishes, cha ca is the only thing served here – fish grilled on a clay brazier at your table, with rice noodles, peanuts and herbs."
Lonely Planet "The antiquated atmosphere here is legendary, and its rickety floors, overcrowded tables and gruff wait staff live up to the billing." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The fish is steeped in a marinade of galangal, saffron, fermented rice, and fish sauce, and then placed into a rich, oily stew, along with fresh chives and dill. "
Rough Guide "It serves just one dish: cha ca, fried fish with fresh dill cooked at your table on a brazier, then eaten with cold rice noodles, chilli and peanuts. "
