Chung nao refers to the past and khi nao more to the future

Thi means then not when

HCMC among world’s top 10 cities for street foods
================================================== ======
Ho Chi Minh City has recently been again ranked among the world’s top ten cities for street foods in a list compiled by travel website VirtualTourist.com.

It was also recommended on Reuters’ Travel Picks column.

“Vietnamese cuisine has received some major street cred in recent memory (Anthony Bourdain's praise comes to mind), and a quick visit to Ho Chi Minh City's Ben Thanh or Binh Tay Markets explains why,” the travel site introduced about Vietnamese foods.

In the recommendation for street foods in the city, the site mentions famous names including pho, banh mi, bo la lot (seasoned beef in a leaf), spring rolls and com tam (cooked broken rice with a fried egg on the top) with an explanation about fish sauce.

“A member noted that no matter what com tam dish you get, it will always be served with nuoc mam (fish sauce), and since each street food stall usually makes their own, people will often choose which stall to return to based on their nuoc mam,” the site added.

VirtualTourist also gives advice for tourists coming to the country for the first time.

“However, since hawker registration and street food health standards aren't as stringent in Vietnam, travelers should be careful to always choose popular, crowded stalls with high turnover.”

Other cities in the list consist of Bangkok, Singapore, Penang, Marrakech, Palermo, Istanbul, Mexico City, Brussels and Beachside Ceviche in Ambergris Caye.

This is not the first time HCMC is recommended as a good place for street food. Early this year, the city was ranked among the world’s top ten cities for street foods by the US’s monthly culinary magazine Food & Wine.

Travel guide book Lonely Planet also listed banh mi as one of the most lip-smacking street foods around the world.

Good enough explanation imho.

the key word here is thuong which is love.

for some reason, vb like to include the word thay in front which means see. this can also be used in thay yeu, thay ghet.

my 2 dong worth.

language is such profound and contradicting at times

something to share here...

recently was chatting with a non-wl vb & came across this word "moc sung"

we tend to use it when we go to ktv/pubs and this word came across to me meaning that having horns like a bull/devil...(in other words xnn )

but was told that "moc sung" could also mean - u dun understand tv , your gf/oc will cheat on you so in general it could mean your partner having an affair but u dun knw as u have no idea wat they are talking about..

this was told to me by a highly educated non-wl vb...anyone can also cfm on this?

just sharing what i was told...was surprised that this word have such meaning behind it as well...
