FROM THE OUTSIDE Nha Hang Lang Nghe, in Danang, looks like any other respectable restaurant in Vietnam. Tables are invitingly laid out in the shade of a lush garden, and festive traditional art lines attractive brick walls. Families laugh over hot pots, and businessmen clink glasses.
A 300-pound giant Mekong catfish illegally caught in Cambodia’s Tonle Sap Lake is displayed at a restaurant in Hanoi, Vietnam. The fish was served to customers celebrating the 2018 Lunar New Year. The restaurant owner said that getting the “rare and special” fish from Cambodia was a challenge but that “we try our best to serve our beloved clients.” PHOTOGRAPH BY LE HIEU
