If you thought you couldn't find an authentic American diner experience in Saigon, you thought wrong, friends. Eddie's is a fairly new addition to the growing food landscape in Thao Dien and serves up American diner food exactly as you like it. Warm cinnamon buns, bottomless coffee, killer milkshakes and epic breakfasts. The food is … Continue reading Eddie’s American Diner

Sunday afternoon at JASPAS in Thao Dien. Three for the roast (one chicken and two beef) with some oysters and of course some cake for dessert. Roast is 250k with happy hour deal on wine or beer. Great comfort food before a new week.

We are all about no frills if it means epic food. We ventured down an alley on Pasteur to this little Malaysian gem and we were not disappointed. The Beef Rendang is next level delish and the Adam Mesak Merah was spicy, flavorful and juicy. The staff are friendly and attentive and despite it being a very simple set up, the restaurant is cosy and comfortable.

Still the unequivocal champions of Middle Eastern food for us. We haven’t been since they moved into their new location but we have had the craving for a few weeks and tonight it was time to fulfill it! If you have been in Saigon for a while, Al Sham probably needs no introduction - the patterned furniture coverings are clue enough. Tonight’s feast was as good as all of the ones that have gone before - lamb with rice, Arabic salad and green bean tangine. Sooooo satisfied!

We (well actually just the South African) lives for a meal plan so when @planta_saigon announced the launch of theirs, it was a no-brainer that we would be trying it. Well, what a week of good eating it was. The portions are good, the food is colorful and varied and most importantly it is full of all the healthy stuff that makes for a very happy tummy. We did brekkie and lunch and the food was delivered at a time that suits each day (we love that kinda flexibility). It was always on time, always fresh and always beautifully presented despite sitting in an (eco-friendly) takeaway box. The buckwheat pancake brekkie definitely stole the show but the wraps were a close second too. We highly recommend you give this a go if you are looking to eat well but don’t have the time/energy/patience to do it yourself.

If you have been following us for a while then you will know that Malaysia holds a very special foodie place in our hearts here at Ate What Where so of course when we got wind of Penang Noodles we had to get ourselves there. We got a bit of everything and will be back very soon to get a bit of everything else. The char kway teow got a solid 10 from the Cambodian and the Kaya toast transported us right back to all of our wonderful Malaysia trips. 170k with two litchi teas. Well worth it!

A beautiful brekkie Pho at the beautiful Mama Sens this morning. We are suckers for decor and when the food is equally as good, it’s bound to become a favorite. Their coffee is fabulous too!
