Yeah, the fish are fermented in really large basins.
After taking out a batch of fish sauce, water is added to the residu to level the basin again.
When the 'core' is exhausted, the basin is cleaned out completely, and refilled with fresh fish and water.
(I have documentary specials in three different languages on two fish sauce manufacturers in Thailand, one in Vietnam)

Wow you really love your fish sauce. That's an impressive amount of knowledge.

I'm on the road not at a real computer so...
1. We just call them rice wraps
2. We call them salad rolls
3. Standard sauce for dipping. My wife will stick with it but I sometimes go rebel on her and add a twist of WHY just to throw her off. hehe
A Fox Does Not Smell It's Own Scent....
Ever been in a train in Singapore....everywhere the smell of rotting Coriander coming out of all the locals skin...and breath.
Same with garlic...

My then GF and I watched a documentary showing how fish sauce is made....we never went near that stuff again...paint peeling bad fish breath in a bottle.

1) The rice wrap is on the outside, the crepe is folded up and eaten on the inside.
2) Salad roll is a good name.
3) Yeah, standard dipping sauce. Nothing too special but damn is it delicious. The combination of spicy, sour and sweet of the sauce with the meaty nuttyness of the food is just delicious!
That's roughly how they make Worcestershire Sauce at Lea&Perrins but with added aromatics and spices.
(Just checked to make sure I'm not telling porkies. Turns out L&P produce it also in the US but to a different recipe. Main change being that the US factory uses 3x the amount of sugar.)
I've seen a docco on roman food and it seems the old romans drowned almost everything they ate in a fermented fish sauce they called 'garum'.
Very much like the proverbial yank who covers everything he eats in ketchup.
The thrill of working in a hospital, ranging from ER at 4am in the weekend to 9-5 computer tomography imaging in a $/min peep-seat with a ciggy, is to see lots and lots of folks in their undies.

A Japanese person does not keep you at a 'respectable' distance without reason.
Guess what the no1 joke is people of all-color-but-one make of caucasians, or what the folks in the Singapore train carriage may have laughed about.
Me, I love the smell of skin, I sometimes felt like Jean-Baptiste Grenouille.
I adore sucking up skin fumes of all corners of the world.
Olive oil and some herbs make skin scent as totally eatable, including my own.
On the other hand, skin scent very often is a give-away of ill yet healthy looking people.
In other situations, skin is a truth or dare indicator whether someone is totally relaxed or somewhat nervous/afraid (difference between a finger warn-off or a 6'' blade).
Then again, I grew up with a water bottle in the bathroom since age 10.
I bought a 50 buck bidet at a bricolage in France when they cost 500 here, and installed it myself.
I live in a house with 2 bidets, one does a fully automated car-wash job for me, I'm only the repairman with the dirty grin.
In the Caribbean, I change my undies 3 times a day, plus rinse&shine my dhonky-cracker 6 times at the least.
Then again, lately I'm somewhat jealous of my dog.

Think of what they say about Australians.
I have to admit that I sincerely don't understand provincialism.
My comments are observations, and not racist slantings.
In Singapore it seemed that every food available was generously laced with coriander.
Garden fresh coriander is one thing, but when slightly too old takes on an entirely different character, and one that I avoid.
So what do "they'' say about Ausies ?.
Jacco: Far too much information there.

Yes I know it's just for the horde of American tourists.

To be frank Max, in China and Japan I have found tourist groups of 20/30 something Aussie males to be about as rude and culturally insensitive as can be.

Maybe it was just a Milwaukee thing, but my mom always told me to plan for that eventuality. Clean underwear in case I got hit by a car and had to go to the hospital.
Have continued to follow that advice, except in the most dire of emergencies. (Why does Jockey sell underwear in packs of six?)

There was some truth to it in the mid '80s.
For reasons unknown to me the US$ was grossly over valued compared to most european currencies ($1 bought 3x as much in Germany than it did in the US).
Consequently US tourists who at home could only afford McD found themselves in Michelin starred eateries in Europe.
It is surprising how long prejudices persist.
