Bến Đá food stand with bits of English on 8-7-24--Vung Tau copy




Bến Đá [Stone Dock] is a blue collar neighborhood with no foreign tourists, yet even here, English has crept in. Notice the possessive apostrophe. It doesn't exist in Vietnamese. Among the offered items is American style fried chicken.

What is the deal with the Viets and primary/fluor paint? Ever heard of ivory or beige?
