Hanging tray with stacked bowls of prepared foods sold by street vendor in Hanoi
Bowls of prepared foods being sold by a street vendor are stacked high on a round tray. The tray is suspended by ropes carried on a shoulder pole by the Hanoi food merchant. Customers request and pay for a selected set of side dishes, which they eat with rice. Cooking and selling prepared foods is a common small business for less wealthy urban families. "Street food" is generally freshly made, inexpensive, and readily available throughout urban areas of Southeast Asia.
