21/35.-Halong Bay, Cat Ba Island, restaurant

On the way back to my hotel I saw this street sign. It does not belong to a pet shop, as I first thought. The sign belongs to a "Thit Cho" restaurant. "Thit" means meat in Vietnamese, and "Cho" means dog. Dog meat is considered a delicacy in Vietnam. Not many foreigners dare eating in one of these restaurants, but if you want a try this unique meat, ask a local where you can find a good "Thit Cho" restaurant.
