5. Con Dao Islands

This remote archipelago of 16 islands combines haunting history with pristine natural beauty, making it Southern Vietnam’s best-kept secret.

Local Cuisine You Must Try

Southern Vietnamese cuisine differs significantly from northern and central regions, characterized by sweeter flavors, abundant fresh herbs, and influences from Cambodia and Thailand.

Iconic Southern Vietnamese Dishes

• Bánh xèo (Sizzling pancake): Crispy turmeric-infused rice flour pancakes filled with pork, shrimp, bean sprouts, and mung beans. Wrapped in lettuce with herbs and dipped in nước mắm (fish sauce). Best tried at Bánh Xèo 46A in Ho Chi Minh City’s District 3, where they serve over 500 pancakes daily.
• Hủ tiếu Nam Vang (Southern-style noodle soup): Clear pork and seafood broth with rice noodles, pork slices, shrimp, quail eggs, and fresh herbs. The authentic version at Hu Tieu Nam Vang Nhan in District 5 has been perfected over 50+ years using a secret family recipe.
• Cá kho tộ (Caramelized fish in clay pot): Fish (typically catfish) slow-cooked with caramel, fish sauce, garlic, shallots, and black pepper in a traditional clay pot. This dish perfectly balances sweet, savory, and umami flavors.
• Bún mắm (Fermented fish noodle soup): A complex, pungent soup featuring fermented fish paste, pork, squid, shrimp, eggplant, and vermicelli noodles. An acquired taste that represents the bold flavors of the Mekong Delta.
• Bánh tằm bì (Thick rice noodles with pork skin): Thick, chewy rice noodles topped with shredded pork skin, herbs, and a rich coconut sauce. This dish showcases the region’s skill in balancing textures and flavors.

Must-Try Street Food Experiences

• Chợ Bến Thành Food Court: Sample 5-7 different southern specialties in one location with English menus and clean preparation (stalls 1040-1044 are particularly recommended)
• Vạn Kiếp Street: Known as “Snail Street,” this 400-meter stretch in Binh Thanh District features 30+ restaurants specializing in ốc (snails and shellfish) prepared in dozens of different ways
• Street Coffee Culture: Experience cà phê sữa đá (iced coffee with condensed milk) at sidewalk cafes where locals spend hours observing street life. Costs range from 18,000-25,000 VND ($0.70-$1.00) per cup.
• Bánh mì sandwich carts: These mobile vendors sell Vietnam’s famous baguette sandwiches filled with various meats, pâté, vegetables, and sauces. Prices range from 20,000-35,000 VND ($0.80-$1.40).

🍴 Pro Tip: Street food stalls with plastic stools and high customer turnover typically offer the most authentic and safe food experiences. Look for places where locals are eating and ingredients are freshly prepared.

Southern Vietnamese Food
