Top choice in Phu Quoc Island
The most atmospheric and best-value place to dine on the island, Duong Dong’s busy night market has stalls of snacks, coconut ice cream and a parade of outdoor restaurants serving a delicious range of Vietnamese seafood, grills and vegetarian options. Quality can be mixed, so follow the discerning local crowd. Riverside tables can be a bit whiffy.
A post-meal meander among the stalls of clothes, souvenirs and peppercorns is a tourist ritual.
