Dinner @ Nhà Hàng Tôm Hùm Seafood - fine dining lobster restaurant

 Hanoi - Mike from DTAsia invited us to this fancy seafood restaurant - we had a private room to enjoy and ambiance and company.

Extracting lobster blood

A lobster's blood is usually greyish/clear in colour. It is circulated by a heart located just behind the stomach, through a few large blood vessels.   Lobster's blood is colourless and when exposed to oxygen it turns to a tint of blue. The blue hue is due to the iron the lobster's body used to transport oxygen.

The restaurant will use the blood to cook the dishes for us.
