The scene was awesome, the crowd was awesome, and the atmosphere was awesome. However, DO NOT TAKE THE STATIONARY TAXI PARKED THERE AS THEY WILL TRY TO SCAM YOU. Please do download the app called 'grab' before you head out, it'll save you headaches and money.

They also had good music playing that provided a nice...
Read moreSuch a friendly vietnamese cafe with a great atmosphere. It is situated moments away from all the bars and clubs of the Old Quarter, and serves food and nd drinks till early hours of the morning. I mostly go for the wings and a few beers, but can also recommend their bbq! This place however definitely is not western... I'm always with local friends so ordering is never an issue, but without them I assume it could be a little difficult! Highly recommended for anyone local or anyone wanting to eat at a proper vietnamese...
