Typical roadside stops where ca phe or pho is served among other food and beverages. The Vietnamese are very proud of their coffee an I took on a real liking to ca phe sua nong, or transliterally coffee milk hot. And the soup is served with vermicelli rice noodle a a big slice of pork among some basil and other greens I immediately soak in the water while its still piping hot. I ate a lot of greens after a few days so long as I could dunk them in hot water to give at least an allusion of disinfection. While greens grown close to the ground are subjected to unclean water my practice seemed to work as I never had any of that uncomfortable stomach bug or worse.
The tall stainless cylinder is for chopsticks that also get soaked in steaming soup broth. There are lots of parents taking care of kids not exclusively their own (as kids would run from one house to the next as if the whole block were open to their curiosity). The ornament is a disco ball of sorts or a lamp made with primary significance of plastic cups.
