Three sisters - Sương Sâm, Sáo and Sa! (Glass jelly)

I don't think foreigners like this jelly drink, it may look strange to them and especially its smell or
taste, but it's healthy! I'm talking about sương sâm, sương sa and sương sáo! Like three sisters having a nice family name "Sương"! "Sương" literally means the tiny drops of water that form on cool surfaces at night!
These names sound nice and good enough to impress us with their ability to cool down any thirst in the heat of summer days!

            Sương sáo (black glass jelly) 

There was a time that I confused... sương sâm is dark green color jelly, but sương sa is white or black jelly? Now it's clear to me! Sương sa is white jelly and most expensive, sương sáo is black and a bit cheaper. Sương sâm is the cheapest and most popular! 

             Sương sa, white glass jelly - most expensive!

Sương sâm made from the leaves of flowering plant named "Tiliacora triandra", and to my surprise, it's very simple to make this green jelly. We just crush, mash or crumple the leaves in a bowl of water, until the water becomes green, then it takes probably few hours for the green liquid to coagulate! Then we have soft as jelly-like consistency, ready for us to make a cool refreshment!

         Sương sâm, the cheapest among three jelly dew! 

Market in Mekong Delta in the eye of a foodie!

As a promise from a previous post "Day trip to Western capital"
I'd love to share not feelings but some captures in this traditional market in Cần Thơ!

My parents house is very close, less than 5' minute walk, to Chợ Bàu Sen - a small market but probably
over 60 year old in Nguyễn Trải street. Right in the center of the busiest fashion street!
I grew up with this market!

I love to go there. Every market wherever I've been!
Bali, Phuket, Taipei...up to Tokyo or even Helsinki, down to Melbourne, Tasmania.
To feel lively atmosphere. To mingle myself with the colorful, smelly picture.
To see how people communicate with each others. Bargain. Shout. Laugh.
To find something new. And to buy a lot of never used stuffs!

Colorful edible flowers. 
From red agati (bông so đũa đỏ) to yellow pumpkin flower.
Representing speciality in many class restaurants in Sài gòn.

I wish to list down all names here, but the color, the shape blurred together and confused me.
