I almost missed the entrance to the bakery as its sign was partly obscured by a leafy tree. I skidded to a stop and hurried in to my appointment. Behind the counter, a manager was speaking in hushed, professional tones to two members of staff. His formal demeanor imbued a certain polish not normally associated with bakeries in Vietnam, one of several things that surprised me that day.
