Just like Bali you have to be very hygiene aware, we were ok but our friends got sick 😫
I was in Vietnam for three months in multiple cities and was fine until I got to Danang. I got food poisoning there and was sick for about 2 ½ days. It came from a restaurant that seemed nice and clean. But you just never know… Keep your immune system healthy. 💗
Yes. Everyone.
Was there 2 weeks and Didn’t get sick once.
Was there 2yrs ago for 3weeks wife, 4yr old and myself .. no food poisoning!
But street food can be fascinating!! Tony Bourdain ate street food in every visited country
Not had it in Vietnam, Thailand or Cambodia. I don’t eat street foor but I do eat buffet breakfasts and salads in hotel (nice hotels, do washing probably fine). Buffets are a risk I feel because of other people touching food and tongs.
What ? I had a good wonderful time .
Don’t be afraid to eat! Some of the best food in the world is on a tiny plastic stool on a Vietnam sidewalk. Just pick the busy spots and stay hydrated
My wife and I were both fine in the month we stayed last September. Hanoi, Halong, Da Nang. Was surprised but absolutely fine..
