Wet bar experience – Ho Chi Minh City

Tim provides a good summary of why we have both found this bar to be a fantastic experience. I am not sure however he has quite captured the amazing vibe of the place, the mold on the walls, the street vendors who move through the bar selling snack foods ( think quail eggs) or the fantastic service – yes they remember your order from day to day. Authentic yes, hospitable yes, and an experience – very much so But now Tim has told the world I just hope it does not change 😉
