Saigon restaurants and food

One of the highlights of any visit to Saigon is sampling the wide variety of cuisines on offer. It is possible to find almost every popular international cuisine in the city, and restaurants offer a very high standard of service.

Another joy of Saigon dining is the value for money; however, this is constantly changing due to the constant rise of food prices and living coasts. Finding bargain food is becoming more of a challenge, although most meals still cost a fraction of the price back home in the west.

Pho is a staple in Vietnamese diet; locals can be found hunched over a bowl of this meaty noodle broth at any time of day. Pho can be found on almost every street and is well worth a try while travelling in Vietnam.

International food is plentiful, and is usually authentic. From Japanese sushi to American style burgers, diners can satisfy their every craving. Saigon has a wide selection of French restaurants, including a number of elegant options.

The wide variety of food on offer in Saigon reflects the diverse nature of the city. The European influence is particularly dominant, and western visitors are often pleased to find delicious coffee and French bread in abundance.
