HCM Eats: KFC

 

In keeping with our fast food tradition, our last dinner in Vietnam was at the KFC located at the top floor of Parkson Department Store.

HCM Eats: Pho 2000

While in Vietnam, we tried to sample as many local delicacies as we could. Pho was on the top of our list, being one of the most popular Vietnamese dishes. 

*Click on the link to hear the correction pronunciation of 'Pho'. Always thought it was pronounced the same way as 'faux'. Turns out we've been saying it wrong all these years!

Paid a visit to Pho 2000 on our last day in Ho Chi Minh.

Hey if it's good enough for Bill, it's good enough for us :)

HCM Eats: Cafe Terrace

One of the nicer meals we had while we were in Vietnam.

HCM Eats: Out and About

Spotted balancing on a Ho Chi Minh street vendor's head. Not sure exactly what this is (and we didnt get to try it), but doesnt it look so yummy??

The vendor looked so cute too, carrying that whole tray piled with pastries on his head.

I love it when we're cruising together ♩♪♫♬

Instead of the usual Ho Chi Minh tour, where they bring you to the tunnels (and the holes in the ground) where the Vietnamese used to hide out during the war, we decided to take a cruise along the Mekong Delta river (that lasted almost the whole day).

Hello Ho Chi Minh!

Last November, we traveled to a land where we were considered millionaires ;)
