Mar 30, 2020

A chef is trying to boost up people’s mood by selling green coronavirus themes burgers. Dealing with the days of Coronavirus pandemic, Chef Hoang Tung and his team now spend their days molding dozens of green-tea stained burger buns to resemble the image of the virus.

“We have this joke that if you are scared of something, you should eat it,” said Tung, at the Pizza Home takeaway shop in downtown Hanoi.

He said: “That’s why the coronavirus isn’t scary anymore after you eat a burger in the shape of the virus itself. That way of thinking spreads joy to others during this pandemic,”.

The shop sold around 50 burgers a day.

In Mid-February, Vietnam recovered from all of its COVID-19 cases. But after that, the cases increased and there were 148 cases recorded in Vietnam, but no deaths.

Authorities in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City have ordered that all non-essential businesses should close although some food outlets, including Tung’s takeaway shop, are still open.
