Good clubs or bars avec live music by pierrenord
Hi everyone! I am new to Ho Chi Minh. Please have good recommendations for clubs or bars? I like live music a lot. Merci Pierre.
Yes Carmen bar is good, but the point is I've been there 10 times and see nothing different from time to time. But still I love its atmosphere. Acoustic bar is so young for me, so many teenagers over there Read More

Ngon Restaurant! by Rachel Bowman
Hi, Is Ngon Restaurant delicous?. What kind of food is the best. Would anyone recommend me?. Thanks
This restaurant is famous for varieties of Vietnamese foods only, not for the "quality" of foods. Always a long line up to get table (in the past, at Ngon Nam Ki Khoi nghia ), plus slow served so ppl are all hungry and that's why they may recommend ... Read More
