    I can see there are few cars on the road too. I guess they are consider as rich folks? Do you know there is a street 11 Tu Do, Gia Dinh in Phu Nhuan by any chance if not, is it no big deal. thank you.

  3. @Tracy: No submarine sandwich restaurants here yet :-) Oh, the other subway…

    @lien: The only Tu Do that I know about is located in the Tan Phu District.
