Mr Kiet's Historic House

This is one of several Ancient Houses around Cai Be. We ride there on our bicycles from our hotel on the Mekong River. We suprised the staff as we had just dropped in, rather than being taken there by a tour guide.We ate the set menu (at 150,000 vnd each). It was so nice, and the portions were generous. The highlight was the grilled elephant ear fish. One of the staffs sons approached us to talk and practice his english (as he wants to work in tourism).A lovely way to spend some time having great food and getting a little off the beaten tourist track.

This was still a great place to sit and have lunch. Definitely developed more recently with the tourist in mind it still has much of the old to see.The food was excellent quality local food, and they happily catered for my vegetarian needs as well as the special fish dishes for the rest of the family.The original homestead (apparently dating back to 1838) is open for people to look through. All in all a good place to visit if you have made it to Cai Be on a river visit.
