Great
I brought this book and Lonely Planet to Saigon in my last trip to Vietnam and this book is way better than Lonely Planet when it comes to Saigon. There are lots of details about daily life and local culinary scene. The introduction to Vietnamese cuisine is excellent. I think there are about more than 50 local dishes introduced in this book with image, description and where to find those dishes. I will recommend this book to friends.
Love it
Amazingly detailed and practical. The eating chapter is where you can find the best information about the local dining scene and Vietnamese cuisine anywhere. I will recommend this book to friends if they travel to Vietnam
Useful
