In recent years, in Hanoi, the number of restaurants and eateries open during the Lunar New Year has been increasing. The holiday season has become a peak business season for eating and drinking, which many restaurant owners take advantage of and fully exploit.
The restaurants are beautifully decorated, creating many attractive check-in spots for young people. Fresh flowers, plants, miniature landscapes, etc. are designed in a diverse and vibrant way, filling the air with the spring atmosphere.
Many young people go to cafes and have conversations at the beginning of the year. Choosing a cafe on Khuc Hao street for the New Year reunion, Ms. Thuy Chi (Ba Dinh, Hanoi) said that the Tet menu has clear and transparent prices, so there is no overcharging. Therefore, despite the increase in prices, Ms. Chi is still satisfied with the Tet service.
Taking commemorative photos is an indispensable activity during the New Year cafe sessions. Young people dress up and check in at various locations.
Not only cafes, but also eateries, vermicelli, and pho are especially popular during Tet.
To change the taste and relieve the Tet fatigue, many diners choose to eat rolled pho and flock to the Ngu Xa area (Ba Dinh, Hanoi) to enjoy this dish.
The “Pho Cuon Street” in Ngu Xa is crowded, and customers have to wait 15 – 20 minutes to get their orders. The price increases slightly by 10,000 VND/dish. Some eateries operate on a family model, with all family members and relatives participating in serving, but they still cannot meet all the demands of customers.
The warm weather supports outdoor activities and sightseeing. A large number of people gather in the city center, causing many streets to be congested and transportation to be difficult.
