At a cafe called Cheap-Cheap (near Cafe Moskva and Nemo) a plate of shrimp with fries costs around 95k VND — among the lowest prices in the area. Fish with rice runs 90–100k, and pho bo just 35k.

What's sold as 'lobster' in Vietnam is actually spiny lobster (no claws), and local preparation can be hit or miss. A kilogram of medium-sized shrimp is a better bet — tastier and more reliably cooked.
