Most Hyped Seafood Spot in Da Nang - Worth it or overrated? (Vietnam Vlog)

[@TheGareth87]

The inspection process is to make sure you receive all the items in its original state as shown by the shop that sold it to you. if there is any problem afterwards, you can simply click return, and they will have shipper come to your place to pick up the items and return to the shop. Usually they ship them back to Shopee warehouse to inspect and then quickly return your money to your Shopee wallet within a day I think.

[@TravelWithNala]

It’s a pretty interesting system

[@aldrive622]

@@TravelWithNala What do you mean "interesting"? The poster clearly explained the delivery process and I found it very reasonable. Did you expect the delivery guy to stay with you the whole time while you assemble the desk and declare all's good? Are you willing to pay for the delivery guy's time waiting for you? Your Karen's entitlement showed.

Thanks I appreciate that! It’s been hard to keep up with once a week tbh 😂. I wish I could make a vid everyday

[@daisyisblue]

2:45 Shopee will let you inspect and make inquiry within 7 days after delivery. Then, if 7 days pass and you dont claim anything, Shopee will charge you for the package. The delivery guy only asked you to sign for his delivery in acceptable condition that needs quick inspection right when delivery is made. If you are not there and ask him to leave the package in the building, then this step is waived without affecting your return condition with Shopee.

Cool I learned this is to inspect damage during delivery not if the product is fine

Sorry you're still dealing with the mosquitoes. If you're interested, i can give you an essential oil remedy that is awesome for repelling mosquitoes. Its safe for dogs too. Tfs ❤

[@TravelWithNala]

oh yeah WAY more expensive in the states for sure. Also there's no tax or tip here which makes a big difference. I've just learned to keep a fan on me when I'm sitting outdoors. All the cafes and restaurants have then lying around and they'll usually point one at you when you sit down.

[@chloemckenzie2934]

The shipper opened the box so that he could check if anything was missing or damaged during delivery. After that, if the product didn’t work, he could return the items within 7 days. It’s actually very convenient for us customers.

[@tony66088]

is Da Nang food spicy? Any way of avoiding spicy food?

[@TravelWithNala]

Actually almost not at all. Now that I think about it, the spicy part of Vietnamese food almost always comes on the side so you can add as much as you want (or none). Usually raw chilis or a spicy sauce.

When the parcel comes you're only supposed to verify if it has been tampered with as best you can. You can't go through it thoroughly and it isn't the point anyways

[@TravelWithNala]

That makes sense. I'm assuming you just check if it got damaged during shipping.

So is this seafood place worth it and will you be back? I don’t want to go through the hassle of negotiating the price even though I speak the language but don’t really know what’s the good price.

Yeah we would go back and take friends there too. There are cheaper options that are just as good but this place has good vibes and great service. Something you just want to binge on food and sometimes you want the whole experience

The seafood looks awesome. Is it really $110? Is that in US dollars?

I have a dog 🐶 question! 👋🏾 I heard that you have to keep your dog on a muzzle during walks because people leave poison meat on the streets to kill dogs. Is this true? I cant and dont want to muzzle my dog because he has tracheal collapse. 😢

[@TravelWithNala]

Yes I've heard that too. Usually it's to kill rats but some people do target dogs too because there are so many strays here. My building required dogs to wear muzzles in the elevators and lobby so we got Nala a big cage muzzle where she has enough room to open her mouth comfortably. That's one option. We don't muzzle her on walk but we don't let her sniff around in overgrown area. We stick to open sidewalks and there are lot of nice parks in Da Nang with well trimmed grassy areas.

[@samuri2011]

​@@TravelWithNalathank you! I see... I'm thinking of renting a house so maybe I won't have the muzzle issue for that part.. I'll think this over. At first I thought Redditors were just exaggerating or being racist, but then I heard some other people say it so now I'm a bit worried. I don't take my dog out much anyways. I saw some picture that someone sent me who said they found pork meat bones at Marble Mountain. I guess it was poison cuz it was just some unfinished bones. Do other Vietnamese locals muzzle their dogs when they're out of the house?

[@TravelWithNala]

@@samuri2011 unfortunately it is true but maybe overexaggerated on how common it is. Most Vietnamese people don't have their dogs on leashes they just roam around like cats. Better safe than sorry. I think if you're just paying attention to your dog when you're outside then you should be fine.

[@samuri2011]

@@TravelWithNala okay thanks so much for saying! that's really helpful to know. I pay attention to my dog and I don't let him roam around because he's a velcro dog. Hahah! Yeah I always see in your videos and other people's videos that dog just roam around free and it doesn't look like they're being poisoned left and right. But ofc I wouldn't know for sure being all the way over here in the US still. I guess I can always pick up my dog in some less maintained area and I have a backpack for him too so maybe we'll be fine. I got freaked out because the support at PAWS rescue said even sniffing the poison can kill them and my dog is small.

[@lovelyms2964]

FYI Southeast Asia countries eat dogs and cats and there are people go kidnap pets and sell them to slaughter house and animals are poisoned on the street constantly

If you're not happy with having to check your order on the sidewalk in front of your building, you can always move back to the US and deal with other bigger problems such as having your packages stolen from in front of your house, and the police refused to do anything about it. Maybe the delivery person in Vietnam is not allowed to go into your house? I do know that the USPS, UPS... delivery people are not allowed into people homes in the US. Did you offer the very poor delivery man a little money to carry the desk upstairs for you to inspect? In the US we have to tips delivery drivers for delivering our furniture and other household products.
