Quan Ba Tho Cafe, Da Nang

One of my favorite 1999 memories is of the Quan Ba Tho Café in Da Nang. There I spent a couple of hours with my guide Phuc and our two pedicab drivers, Cuoung and Otrang eating the largest grilled shrimp I have ever seen, drinking whiskey and beer, all for the unbelievable price of $12US.

You also see our hostess, the café owner, along with her young son who was none too pleased to be sitting in my lap in the pedicab.
