Limited Choice in Hanoi

The food choice in Hanoi is quite limited.  Mostly hawker food and the fresh market has only local produce.  I do not see any imported fruits or vegetables.  Pho is the most readily available.  I do not see any other type of food except hotpot, bbq and tofu with boiled innards.  There are no fashion brands or McDonald's or Starbucks. Only local brands.  The ability to buy is limited.  But with factory expanding, the general income will rise and consumption will grow.  I did not see any high end resturants in Old Hanoi.  Next time, I should stay in an international hotel.  Maybe the landscape will be different.
