The difficult thing for tourists is the language barrier, otherwise you just need to ask the locals and they will show you good and cheap shops. Enjoy your time .
I wasn't going to go to Madame Khan's because it sounded too touristy but a local asked me where I was going and I said to get Banh Mi, and she told me to go to Madame Kahn 🙁
I went there, Madam Khanh's banh mi was not good, I ate at a very delicious popular bánh mì shop, and a very delicious popular mì quãng shop. Unfortunately I don't remember the address to show you 🙂
Hi Brown hope you still enjoying in Vietnam 😅is anybody there to help you for translation 😦anyone knows or friends 😊wishing you all the best 😄god bless 🙏 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi sandyb0ss, yes it's great here. I'm traveling solo so I don't have anyone to translate for me. Its difficult to communicate some times but that's just part of being a traveler 👍
Hey how’s it going Brown, let you know you’re not missing out on anything that Banh Mì is not all that good. In fact one good recommendation is do not follow google do not follow Anthony Bourdain or any of those things they don’t know Vietnamese food they’re not Vietnamese go where the locals eat ask the Locos they know where good food is. Madame Quan and bánh mì Phượng is not quality Vietnamese food it is generic Vietnamese food made for Western taste.
Hi David, thanks for the advice. Yes I had trouble finding good local places in the Hoi An old town. Whilst still being a beautiful place, the reality is that it is a tourist destination and there are tourists absolutely everywhere there. I should have called this episode, 'eating like a tourist' 😅
