Personally I prefer to try the street stalls rather than restaurants. Cheap and good.
Quan An Nqon has nice ambience with a wide selection of food to choose at affordable prices but I dont really rate the food there.
Try the Pho at Pho 24 located on Pham Ngu Lao.
Also try Trung Vit Lon (Duck embryo) when you have the chance.

finally someone spoke.. i dun rate Quan An Ngon food as good either..:s13: its just the convenience and price wise which makes it a very convenient location for tourists to try the various food out, pho24 imho serves tastier pho bo than Quan An Ngon.. nothing beats the food found at markets and street stalls..;)

Techadd,
Saw your web on the daily tour. Can check with you how much are the tours as it's not stated in your website.

Actually I looking more at the Full day Saigon City Tour. Currently I have 6 people confirm want to go for the city tour, might have more cos total 31 pax travelling together, but I have not checked with the rest if they are interested in the tour or not.

Also, we would prefer to have the tour on the day we reach on Friday at 9am but we have arranged for transportation to pick us up from the airport and go to Elios Hotel. So is it possible to have the tour starting at around 10am or 10.30am, pick up from Elios Hotel?

I agree too! went to Quan An Ngon to try and the ambience is nice. But we found the food and prices much better at Ben Thanh market.

yes, its possible to start the tour at 10.30am pick up from Elios Hotel. but price wise, it also depends on the number of pax participating. i'll do a quick based on minimum 10pax with 01 Lunch inclusive for you if you prefer?
