BUT, there are some great restaurants in Saigon that really do deserve a visit – and Banh khot Co Ba Vung Tau is definitely one to consider… It has some great food options on the menu, but if you’re really looking for something local […]

I first came across Saigon’s Den Long restaurant in 2017, way before any bat had even thought about the possibilities of spreading a deadly pandemic…and I’m sure that if you’ve spent any time in District 1, you might have come across it too.

First off, I have to point out that there aren’t too many Western options here, as Western-focused tourism still hasn’t landed big-time in Quy Nhon. I have a feeling tourism is about to arrive in this cute little town, but until it does, your eating out options are fairly limited. […]

You can literally find a Pho joint almost everywhere, but then comes the question – are they actually any good?
