Hai Lua Food Countryside @ Ho Chi Minh

Hai Lua Food Countryside is open air place located at the night market outside Ben Thanh, Ho Chi Minh. Walking around 20 minutes approximately to reach Ben Thanh market from the hotel we stayed "Palace Hotel Saigon" made it convenient to had dinner at Hai Lua. It was a  great experience dining here, it's an open kitchen with couple of grills outside, where you can see your food being prepared. The ambiance of the place was simple, using plastic chairs and tables.
