first week food list for someone who's never been to vietnam

What I'd eat in order: pho for breakfast, banh mi from a cart, com tam (broken rice with grilled pork), bun thit nuong, banh xeo, fresh spring rolls, a hot pot with friends.

Coffee: ca phe sua da every single day.

Point at what others are eating if there's no English menu. Works every time.

    Add bun bo Hue if you like spicy. Life changing.

    And hu tieu for a lighter noodle soup. Saigon does it really well.

    Saving this. How do I say not spicy?

    'không cay'. Usually works.
