Your food tour starts with some authentic local appetizers such as chao muc (a dry squid porridge) and xa xui (Cantonese barbecued pork). Then, you'll make your way to the corner of Nguyen Cong Tru and Calmette for a unique street food called banh bo banh tieu. This spot is also a good place to learn about Calmette and Yersin, the two disciples of Pasteur who greatly contributed to the health system in Vietnam.
