[CAPTAINXXXSOLO]

How can you go anywhere for food when people ride their motorbikes like a bunch of zombies and traffic jams are absolutely ridiculous.

By the time you go from district 1 to any of these places, have some food and go back, you would waste somewhere about 4 hours.

In the day time, the heat and humidity are just murderous. You'd be soaked in sweat within 5 minutes and so worn down that you would not feel like eating.

The food has so much MSG, additives, spices, fat and sugar it's ridiculous, not to mention all sorts of industrial contamination in the meat and fish.

Have you seen and smell the Dai river in Hoi An? It smells like fresh shit even 1 mile away. The whole river is loaded down raw sewage from the whole town for decades. In the peak of the rainy season, the Dai river would flood the whole town with that fresh sewage up to the second floor. The people would just move their furniture to high ground and wait.

Early every morning you can see people digging in that sewage mud along the Dai river to catch shell fish, crab and snails so they can sell their "fresh catch" in the morning.

The Cao Lau, which is a local specialty of Hoi An is actually Chinese noodle soup, loaded with so much fat, MSG and spices, it tastes terrible and very unhealthy.

Hoian was a trading port with a mix of shallow foreign influences. I find it way overhyped and not worth while as a tourist spot.
