For years this French restaurant was the finest dining in Can Tho. While the city has grown-up considerably, L'Escale still boasts the best rooftop terrace; try to snag a table at the front overlooking the riverfront promenade. The specialty is steak, but the menu has chicken, duck, pork, or fish dishes as well, accompanied by a decent size list of wines by the bottle and jazzy tunes.

Located in a modern development, this corner French café-bistro is just the ticket for those wanting a break from Vietnamese food. It has egg dishes and tartine for breakfast, French salads, duck, and steak for dinner, and in a strange twist, poke bowls for lunch.
