New Orleans East, New Orleans

Vietnamese American neighbourhood out past the Industrial Canal centred on Chef Menteur Highway and Village de l'Est. Dong Phuong bakery, pho counters, Tan Dinh.

New Orleans East, past the Industrial Canal, is the city's Vietnamese American neighbourhood, centred on Chef Menteur Highway and Village de l'Est. Dong Phuong bakery is the essential stop, with pho counters and Tan Dinh carrying the savoury end. It is worth the drive in a city where nobody thinks they need to drive.
