Kon Tum, Southwest Highlands

Weather forecast was pretty bad for the north so in order to avoid heavy rains that may last days we moved down to the Southwest Highlands. From Mai Chau we took the chicken-bus to Hanoi. Our crazy driver honked everyone off the road, but that's pretty much normal. Goods and humans made it finally to Hanoi where two of the humans went back to the beloved Cafe Pho Co to have our Cà phê trứng, coffee with whipped egg yolks. We also had galette in a French restaurant. Fois gras with baked apples and cider is a perfect match. We took then an early morning flight to Pleiku and from Pleiku airport a taxi to Kon Tum. Here there are other minorities than in the north. Bahna, Jarai and Sedang are just some of the minority groups inhabiting the jungles around the town. We are going to visit some Bahna villages tomorrow with a guide. Today we visited the Kon Tum museum and the wooden church.

Lunch we ordered at a small restaurant without actually understanding what we were ordering. This is what came out. It was damn good. 2.90 euros including drinks:
