{Hanoi Memories} Fanny's Ice-cream Hoan Kiem Lake

In Sunday's post I wrote about our visit to Fanny's ice-cream in Thao Dien.

Fanny's ice-cream is a Vietnamese institution - french style ice-cream and sorbet that has been a huge hit with tourists since the mid-90's.

One of my favourite outings in Hanoi was to take the girls to the Fanny's parlour on Le Thai To across the road from the beautiful Hoan Kiem Lake.

Huge glass windows provide a perfect view of the lake making this one of the most popular ice-cream parlours for tourists visiting Vietnam.

Add to that the Fanny's all-you-can-eat ice-cream buffets on the first Friday of every month and it's not hard to see why this is the best spot in the country to over-indulge!

Here's some snaps of our last visit to the Fanny's parlour in Hanoi before we moved south:
