HOI AN HAI SAN -HOI AN RESTAURANTS

Hai-san means "seafood" in Vietnamese and "hello" in Swedish. The owners, longtime Swedish expat Calle and Hoa, his Vietnamese wife, offer just that: "Hello, seafood!" This is one of the few spots on Hang Bac that doesn't need to try to drag you in because it's the food that brings folks here. I had a delicious grilled, marinated tuna filet with ginger, garlic, and lemon grass and served in a light coconut milk. The sea scallops in cream sauce are a favorite. Everything's good here, and it's a good place to linger, enjoy the Swedish lingonberry (a kind of cranberry) ice cream, and watch the goings-on on busy Bach Dang.
Address: 64 Bach Dang St
