Silk bags or any silk items...plenty of them at Van Phuc..just 30 minutes from old quarters...there are also plenty of silk in old quarters, but need to bargain.

If you like Tintin, the Belgian comic book character, Hanoi shops are filled with painted reproductions of the book covers on glossy wooden panels. They are beautiful and will usually cost less than $4 U.S.
There is also a good silk market there; plenty of food-oriented items (bowls, chopsticks, etc.); and there's even a little store which specializes in historic communist propaganda posters, which are brilliantly kitschy/nostalgic/ironic, if you like that kind of thing.

If you enjoy coffee, I'd ask him to bring some Nescafe Vietnamese Instant complete. Comes in little individual servings and is so good iced. It would be easy for them to pack and bring home too. Silk Scarves are nice too. Cheers
