Set in a restored colonial villa with an open courtyard, Quan An Ngon (often called simply 'Ngon') gathers dozens of individual food stalls, each specializing in a particular regional Vietnamese dish, into one convenient venue. It's an ideal introduction for travelers wanting to sample a wide range of Vietnamese street food-from northern bun cha to southern com tam-without hunting down separate stalls across the city, though purists note the quality, while solid, doesn't always match the single best specialist for each dish.
