Den Long offers a menu full of tasty Vietnamese food and a restaurant influenced by the design of Hoi An. I have eaten Vietnamese food for more than 20 years, which is why it is difficult to impress me. More than just food, the friendly staff is also a highlight of Den Long. They speak English really well and work with a smile on their face. Phone: 0909 949 183 Business hours: 11 AM – 10 PM

This is my favorite vegetarian restaurant. Whenever I have vegetarian friends in town, I bring them here. From a quick glance at the outside, this restaurant looks like a house from the countryside. The fence is made from plants and the restaurant’s sign is a flat winnowing basket. Walk inside and you will find tables and chairs made from bamboo. I think I’ve tried all the dishes on the menu here, but I can’t recommend any specific dishes to you. All the food is great! Hours: 8 AM – 10 PM Price: 35,000 – 100,000 VND

Hum Vegetarian is located in District 3, on Vo Van Tan street, just a two-minute-walk from the War Museum. This, I would say, is the paradise of vegetarian. As a vegetarian, you might worry that you can’t experience all the tastiest dishes that Vietnam has to offer. Here is my response, no need to worry. This restaurant might even make you into a full-time vegetarian, so it’s an excellent choice for everyone. Capturing the spirit of a pagoda, you will be greeted by a zen and cozy space. Take a break from the Saigon heat and sense-overload, and calm down and enjoy the peace here. Map coordinates: 10.778828, 106.692118 Hours: 10 AM – 10 PM Price: 70,000 – 130,000 VND

From the name Nuoc Mia 93, you can tell that this store specializes in selling sugarcane juice from the 60s. This sugarcane juice is refreshing, and it pairs nicely with other snacks that they sell, such as goi bo (beef jerky), goi cuon (fresh spring rolls), ha cao (dumplings), bun rieu (crab paste vermicelli soup), and bo bia (popiah). Frankly speaking, although the food is good, it’s not considered “excellent”. But anyway, if you’re feeling hungry, give it a try since it has a variety of Vietnamese snacks for you to choose. Sipping a glass. Opening Hours: 12 PM – 6 PM Price range: 4,000 VND – 22,000 VND (0.2 USD – 1 USD)

The most impressive ingredient is the pâté. It’s sweet, salty, flavorful, soft, smooth, greasy, and addictive. I’m sure that you cannot find it anywhere else!. How about the price? Good news for you is that you don’t need to go bankrupt to eat well since the price of this tasty baguette is just 13,0000 VND (0.6 USD)! The owners are super friendly, so if you want extra pâté, just tell them!I believe that many people have a love and hate relationship with this banh mi store. The baguette is sold only from 2 PM to 5 PM, and it makes me go nuts sometimes.
