Saigon is known as the "sleepless city". Because the early morning until late at night, sounds of bustling buyers, sellers still noisy, bustling. Rich country is famous for its rich cuisine, modern culture. "Other" is the cultural characteristics of Saigon, not to be confused with anywhere.

Cuisine Saigon Vietnam very diverse and rich, the street food, community, racing coming up with hundreds of unique dishes. It is not too gimmicky and flowery land of flowers to give the name of this "Golden Land of culinary establishments in Vietnam." Drinking culture of Saigon brought a separate definition, generous, vibrant and gorgeous unlike the thoughtful, gracious, elegant grape of northern origin, or a cautious, thoughtful of the central region.


The Saigon with professional apart, that demonstrated by the appearance of hundreds of frantic great pubs, far exceeding in size and quality. Fashionable pubs are the most popular is the restaurant garden with wide space, chair, window open and simply decorated space, strange, known by the names are called as "village grill "," green garden "," garden "," forest green, red sea "...

Has called the culture, no one outside the influence of its days, pubs mainly concentrated in the central districts, where public servants work and business, is now spread out all the suburbs and poor together, no less.

Drinking style of Saigon very clear, very simple, sometimes just a simple pot, a few plates, cups crushed into meal and drinking wine spectacular, so they raise the drinking area is the enthusiasm , and truly unite rather than formal in food and drink.

Speaking to the impartiality, perhaps the Saigon also the number one, not fussy, not ritual, they lived hard and drinking hard well, with the adoration of drinking lasted from morning to night, to have the adoration of drinking last night to morning.

It seems that people drinking all day, all week, no matter what the occasion. There are hundreds of reasons to go to discuss their drinking, long time friends met to celebrate the hand started drinking; funerals, weddings, anniversary pace together; have funny stories, sad again; all hours of the same industry together to relax together; a visitor to your home then ... Talk to strangers drinking, drinking before you know later on, who does not want another, is considered "playing not very", "not in the same boat", of a kind "need to prevent" ...

The Saigon drinking is also a way to express emotions, culture, their lifestyle. Anyway, pull together people together and make life more meaningful, better understood the value of life they deserve.

Not only men but also women, drinking no less. In the table, women also aggressive, well separated equally, not shy or humble as Northern girls, their fun and joy of the men were drunk as drunk hard.

Even students, students nodded at a table wine, with full reasons: birthdays, pass, find work and of course more stories ... lovelorn, failing again. People write, artists often drunk, partly for the fun, relieve stress, partly due to seeking information, pick up the material life, finding inspiration and ideas around the table together, there arose a while back works of art.

Saigon was still very young though, how old look young, dynamic and rapid development of an industrial city "tirelessly" to make tourists from everywhere here are quick rhythm, and if Saigon to understand how drinking please visit projector, you'll see ... a man like Saigon.
