To start the journey, we'll take you to a local restaurant in District 1, where you can have Pho bo - Vietnam’s iconic beef noodle soup that has captured the hearts of food lovers around the globe.


While you might have tried Pho back home, tasting an authentic Saigonese style bowl right on the sidewalk is an absolute game - changer! Compared to its subtle, delicate Northern cousin, Saigon's Pho Bo is famously bold, slightly sweet, and packed with an explosion of fresh herbs.


Broth Ingredients: Charred ginger & shallots, toasted cinnamon, star anise, cardamom, roasted coriander seeds, simmered slowly with beef marrow bones.


Other Ingredients: Tender beef brisket, rare beef slices, chewy beef meatballs, topped with green onions, fresh basil, saw-tooth herb, crunchy bean sprouts, and a swirl of house-made hoisin and hot chili sauce.

Ingredients: Sweet bananas, sticky rice, rich coconut sauce, tapioca, toasted sesame seeds.

Vintage Apartments

Uncover the raw, authentic pulse of Saigon!
