If you have the chance to stay in Ho Chi Minh City during a weekend, a temporary market is installed Saturday and Sunday in the Pham Ngu Lao backpackers area. The Saigon Central Market is ideal for a gourmet break and enjoy local dishes at a small price. You also can find some food from Korea, Thailand or Hongkong even thougt you have chance to taste the crocodile, I tried it, it’s just a big chicken that has a little taste of tide. If you like shoping, in the mid to the end of maket is a shopping area.
