Got invited to An Vien Restaurant in Saigon recently by a lovely family from Singapore. Thanks to them, I can, for a change, depart from my US$1 or US$2 Vietnamese food recommendation and show you how an upscale restaurant in Saigon is like. While, to me only, this is what I’ll call ‘the finer things in life money can buy’, the truth is that all the 7 delicious dishes below came only to US$56. You will find An Vien Restaurant Saigon worthy of your visit given the set up and the reasonable prices…

You won’t find this Rach Gia Bun Rieu in your travel guidebook. I came across it by chance too. What happened was that I rode 130km from Can Tho and reached Rach Gia at 3pm+. Checked into this US$5.50 hotel and rushed out looking for food. While the trick is to always look for a busy restaurant, I thought this was going to be difficult given it was way pass meal time at 3pm+. Hence I was really surprise and glad to chance upon this small shop streaming with customers…

The Phu Quoc Night Market opens daily from 6pm till about midnight. This is where you can get inexpensive Phu Quoc souvenirs, ‘I love Phu Quoc’ t-shirts, sandals and accessories, especially Phu Quoc Pearls. Of course, seafood is the main reason one goes to the Phu Quoc Night Market. I didn’t dine there but a search on the internet consistently says the seafood there are ‘cheap and good’. Do note that vegetarian options are also available…

When I wrote my first very own food blog, I already declared to you guys that I’m no gourmet or foodie. This means there will be no technical terms on the stock, what ingredients are used and how much punch every bite of the meat produces. I can only tell you that the fish porridge in this shop at Saigon’s District 7 is VERY NICE…
