"Who likes to spend money though? If you can save money, you want to do it, right?"

Niall shares his top 7 favorite happy hour spots in Saigon, the bustling city he now calls home.
As a self-professed happy hour enthusiast, Niall has strong opinions on what makes a true "happy hour" deal, favoring bars that offer 50% off drinks over the dreaded "buy 2 get 1 free" promotions.

He highlights spots like the expertly-crafted cocktails at 86 Proof, the stylish ambiance of Mami, and the unbeatable sunset views at Café des Stagiaires. Throughout the episode, Niall marvels at the exceptional talent of Saigon's bartenders, who seem to elevate even classic cocktails like the Whiskey Sour.

He encourages listeners to share their own Saigon happy hour recommendations, as he knows there are many more hidden gems to discover.

Key Takeaways:
1. Niall is a self-proclaimed happy hour aficionado who loves finding the best drink deals in Saigon
