Ben Thanh is Saigon's landmark market, a 1914 hall of produce, dry goods and a busy food court by day that spills into an open-air night market.
OrderA bowl of bun mam or che from the covered food court.
TipPrices are marked up for tourists; the food-court stalls at the back are the real reason to come.
Binh Tay is the grand market at the heart of Cho Lon, a 1920s Chinese-built hall of wholesale goods ringed with food stalls serving Teochew classics.
OrderA bowl of hu tieu or a Cho Lon-style dumpling from the outer stalls.
TipThe wet market outside runs earliest; come at dawn to watch Chinatown do its shopping.
Ben Thanh Street Food Market is a covered food hall a block from Ben Thanh, gathering stalls of Vietnamese and Asian street dishes around shared tables.
OrderGrilled seafood and a plate of banh xeo from adjacent stalls.
TipIt is more polished and pricier than the street, but a comfortable air-conditioned sampler.
Ho Thi Ky is Saigon's best-loved night food street, a maze of alleys behind the flower market crammed with stalls of banh trang, snails, grilled skewers.
OrderBanh trang tron and a plate of grilled snails.
TipCome hungry after dark and graze from stall to stall; it is busiest and best from 19:00.
An Dong is one of Saigon's oldest and largest indoor markets, a wholesale fashion hall in District 5 whose basement food court draws locals for Cho Lon eats.
OrderA bowl of che or a plate of banh from the basement food court.
TipSkip the upstairs clothing floors and head straight to the basement food stalls.
Cho Cu, the Old Market, is a one-block street market on Ton That Dam in the shadow of downtown towers, a fast-vanishing pocket of old Saigon selling produce.
OrderA grab-and-go banh mi or fruit from the street vendors.
TipIt is steadily being demolished for development; go soon to see this slice of old downtown.
