Listen Later

Welcome to the premiere of "What About Vietnam" – the Uncut Edition! 

This marks the second instalment of our Out & About mini-series, where I, Kerry Newsome, along with the ever-adventurous Kelly McCarthy, take you on a journey through the vibrant streets of Saigon. 
Get ready for a deeply personal and unforgettable experience as we share candid anecdotes and insider tips. From quirky mishaps to heart-warming moments, we're laying it all bare – glitches and all. 

You'll hear some laughable moments as we navigate the uncharted territories that guidebooks overlook. We do it with frankness and open sharing. Our goal? To inform, enlighten, and hopefully bring a smile to your face. 

We guide you through its bustling markets and upscale boutiques. From the glitz and glamour of Takashimaya to the hidden treasures of Vincom Plaza. 

Of course, no trip to Saigon would be complete without a taste of its diverse cuisine. Join us as we sample mouth-watering dishes from mid-range eateries to high-end restaurants, uncovering hidden gems along the way. 

And let's talk personal care. We've got the inside scoop on high-quality and affordable dental services available in Saigon, courtesy of our partners at Worldwide Hospital.

Plus, we'll share our own quest for the perfect hair salon, with a special “shoutout” to Tommy's for their European techniques that cater to even the pickiest of blondes.
