The tanks and fighter planes out front will send testosterone down your spine. However that enthusiasm will quell when you step inside. The impact of war on the people. The horror. The horror.
This marvelous piece of 'fin-de-siecle' European modernism was completed in 1892 by the architects of Gustav Eiffel bureau, and is arguably the most beauuuuutiful building in Saigon!
Try the Banh Mi - Banh Mi filled with pork roasted on a spit, gyro style among other ingredients. Sweet and salty flavor, firm, chewy texture. Delicious.One of the many I tried while in Saigon: ht
A flagship of sorts for this ubiquitous chain. Huge al fresco area for kicking back with your friends.
An amazing restaurant for classic lunch dishes. Large open kicthens allow a chef's peak. Ate of of the best bun thit nung cha gio (vermicelli w/ grilled pork and egg rolls) there in my life!
Best party spot in the city hands down. Best music variety and the drinks are always stiff. The Ladies Night (Tuesday night) is something to absolutely check out if your in town.
Its not just a name and nothing much going on... Its the place to entertain your guess, clients with the best hostess service & great filipino live band.. Liquor bottles are also reasonable.
Small cozy lounge music bar in Saigon. Good music. Need reservation on weekend. General age visit here 80s-90s.
Beautiful especially at night ... Great lighting, romantic atmosphere ... If you can ignore the hundreds of motorbikes ... Visit at night if u have limited time
A nice, historic place to stay in the city. Breakfast in the quiet courtyard was a highlight.
Wonderful staff. As central as you can get. Pricey but worth it. Rooms with terrace on 3rd floor are really nice with direct pool access.
The oysters and blue swimmer crab tempura are to die for. Do make sure to book in advance and get the outside table overlooking the river, it's so relaxing and pretty here.
Probably the best Banh Mi shop I know. It used to be named "the fake" Banh Mi Hanoi, and ironically it becomes even more well-known than the real one. Hence the new brand "Huynh Hoa".
Young (and old) urban professionals, expats with hot girls 20 years younger. Very tiny place thou.
