A small Hue in Saigon

Nam Giao — “a small, peaceful Hue in the heart of Saigon.” A long-running Hue restaurant in alley 136 Le Thanh Ton, where Saigon diners return for the old capital’s dishes: humble com hen, rich bun bo Hue, banh beo, nem lui, banh nam.

ALLEY 136

The alley’s end

Walk straight down alley 136 Le Thanh Ton about 500m, turn left — Nam Giao sits at the alley’s end, quietly tucked away.

GOLD SIGN

The landmark

The carved gold sign, lanterns in the courtyard — the marks of a long-running Hue restaurant in Saigon.

THE COURTYARD

The quiet interval

Amid noisy Saigon, Nam Giao’s courtyard is a quiet interval — where time slows down with the aromas of the Hue kitchen.

OLD CAPITAL

Hue flavor in Saigon

Com hen, bun bo, banh beo, nem lui, banh nam — the old capital’s dishes, kept for Saigon diners who miss Hue.
