Opening a bank account in Ho Chi Minh City 2026
Your home debit card works at big chains, but small vendors on Tân Trụ and most market stalls are cash only. Keep a few million đồng on you. For the account, bring your visa and passport plus proof of address; some branches want a lease.
Bún bò Huế price for tourists in Ho Chi Minh City 2026
Honestly there's no tourist menu there, it's one price for everyone, usually posted on the wall. I paid around 60k to 75k last time I was in town, and a local sitting next to me handed over the same. The "foreigner markup" thing is mostly a myth at sit-down spots like that; it's more of a thing at Ben Thanh market stalls. Just check the sign before you order.
yeah the wall sign is the tell, but ask for the small bowl too since that's a few dong cheaper and plenty
Small bowl's plenty, grab extra herbs though
yep the small is enough, but ask for it by name or they default to lon. also the price can drift a bit by branch, so glance at the sign again at the counter before u pay
Agree, but the bún chả stalls on Pasteur do add a few thousand
Posted price goes up most Tet weeks
the posted price thing holds but watch for the "extra meat" upsell, they'll ask and it jumps 15 to 20k. also the smaller alley branches off Vo Van Tan tend to run cheaper than the main spots.
Fair point, though the markup does show up at the tourist-heavy spots around Bui Vien where menus quietly skip the local price.
dunno about that spot specifically but most places the price is just on teh wall so u pay what's listed
