Ho Chi Minh City restaurants
Restaurants in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam's largest, most sophisticated metropolis, can seemingly satisfy nearly every hankering, from burgers and pizza to sushi and foie gras. Its also a melting wok for Vietnams varied cuisines, from the steamed dishes of the north and the spicy entrées of the central coast to the sweeter, stir-fried specialties of the south. Most of the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh City are found in District 1, in the heart of the city. An enduring French imprint can be found, and tasted, in the countless cafés and banh mi stalls, which serve up crusty baguettes slathered with mayonnaise and stuffed with grilled meats, pickled daikon, chilies, and cilantro. Smart-casual attire is acceptable at most restaurants, but business suits or blazers predominate in a handful of top-tier establishments. By Vietnamese standards, the dinner hour—starting around 7:30 or 8 pm—is late.
