Restaurants

Nha Trang and Mui Ne are famous for their seafood, which can be enjoyed local-style, in a noisy shack surrounded by beer-chugging Vietnamese, or in more sophisticated surrounds like a resort setting overlooking the beach. Outside of Nha Trang and Mui Ne, dining options are more basic; seafood is still the specialty along the coast, but in the Central Highlands the focus is on the locally grown vegetables and free-range village-raised chicken and pork. Local specialties are candied fruit, jam, artichoke tea, and Dalat wine. Beyond Da Lat, Nha Trang, and Mui Ne, dining choices are mostly local but incredibly tasty, particularly in the tasting treasure trove that is Quy Nhon.
