If in Hanoi, fresh draft Hanoi beer is $0.2 or 0.4 per glass, can't remember how much but I remember bring $10, u will never walk home straight.

Drinking beer together with them by the side of the road. Give them cigarette; they give us boiled peanuts. Playing with their young child; look at beautiful people of all walk of life zooming on scooters on all 4 directions.

Bonking all a sudden become secondary. I know a lot of brothers here can afford to pay big money to cheong anywhere in this world.

If you view HCMC just as another sex tourism location; you may miss out on the real gem this country provide.

How true... Had one bad experience in Hanoi but the beauty and beauties in Vietnam make it forgettable. Going to the villages, eating with the villager local food that they recommended and drinking beer with them.

Very relaxing and amusing to them because I am the only foreigner there. LOL.


edit: In Hue right now, very small place so best to make friends with a local villager guide not those kind of company's guide. So instead of seeing pagoda and dead people resting place, visit their village. Darn cheap. Duck porridge x3, beer bottles x2 all for $4 SGD.

Cảnh sát ập vào điểm karaoke “ôm” có tiếng ở Sài Gòn, phát hiện hàng loạt “chân dài” ăn mặc khêu gợi phục vụ khách tại các phòng.

Đêm 24/7, đội 5 (phòng chống tệ nạn mại dâm - cờ bạc) công an TP HCM kết hợp cùng Đoàn Thanh tra (Sở Văn hóa Thể thao và Du Lịch) bất ngờ ập vào kiểm tra nhà hàng Phong Thành số 166-168 Nguyễn Biểu (phường 2, quận 5).

Tại gần 10 phòng karaoke, nhiều tiếp viên ăn mặc hở hang bị cho là có biểu hiện khiêu dâm đang ngồi với khách. Chủ nhà hàng không xuất trình được giấy phép kinh doanh karaoke.

Ngoài ra, kiểm tra nhà hàng, cơ quan chức năng còn lập thêm nhiều biên bản các lỗi như: kinh doanh rượu nhập lậu nhưng không dán nhãn mác tiếng Việt, quảng cáo rượu trên 30 độ, dùng băng đĩa nhái… Nhiều dàn máy hát, rượu, đĩa nhạc bị thu giữ.

Theo cảnh sát, nhà hàng Phong Thành là chốn ăn chơi có tiếng tại Sài Gòn. Nơi đây quy tụ dàn “chân dài” trẻ đẹp để phục vụ khách trong những buổi nhậu nhẹt. Do giá cả tại đây đắt đỏ nên khách đến đây gồm nhiều đại gia, Việt kiều và được đặt biệt danh là “zách lục lục” (địa chỉ 166).

damn. does that mean it is permanently shut down now ? or it is just another shakedown operation similar to Malaysia and Thailand ?

that was the first local-style KTV I went in Vietnam, way back in 2007. I can still remember the girls and their gorgeous boobs.

Darn, so many shut downs when I will be there in few days time.
