Thịt chó

Okay, I must confess I hesitated to post this one.

Eating dog surely is a taboo in our western cultures, but it’s not here - and it’s actually considered almost as a delicacy.

For those who were contemplating coming over to Vietnam and who are now reconsidering, please don’t let this fool you: you will not be served dog’s meat if you don’t specifically request it. It is only served in some restaurants advertising ‘Thit cho’.

Some will argue that it’s wrong to eat dog, and the purpose of this blog isn’t to debate about it, but rather to open our eyes to a different culture - because it feels nice to see that we’re not all alike.
