Food Travel Log
During the rainy season in Hanoi, you get caught in showers repeatedly, which leads to spending money at cafes. There are truly many cafes in Vietnam.
Listening to the rain while watching the cooking and enjoying small encounters is also charming. It was a refreshing sweet plum? juice.

By the way, works with good rain scenes tend to be good. Like Totoro.

Ume juice, actually a well-known traditional drink in Japan, is surprisingly also enjoyed in Vietnam. Made from what is commonly known as "ume syrup," it is created by fermenting ume plums with sugar. In local cafes, this beverage, characterized by its unique fruity sweetness and refreshing tartness, is a perfect choice for a refreshing drink. Vietnam's cafe culture, influenced by the French colonial era, has developed its own unique style, offering a diverse range of beverages and ways to spend time. The author expresses surprise with "Ume juice?" as if they were so relaxed that they are bewildered by the oddity of encountering ume, no matter how far they've traveled from Japan, wondering if it's a "dream?" However, much like how he recalls a famous rainy movie, it's amusing how he occasionally seems to float ambiguously within his writing. Despite appearing to be a master of self-discovery, he seems to have a talent for getting lost.
