Da Nang After Dark | Bars, Cigars and Late Night Snacks

A walk through the An Thuong nightlife area in Da Nang, Vietnam, starting at a 'sea bar' with live music and a koi pond, then moving to the main 'bar street' (which can be loud, so the host advises against living there). The Corner Pub is highlighted as an iconic spot where you can 'start your night here and end your night here', always full late at night. A cigar lounge is visited, where Canadian friends noted they have 'all kinds of cigars from all over the world, not only Cubans'. The Garden Bar & Kitchen is described as 'one of Da Nang's longest bars', featuring pool tables and video games. The walk continues to My Khe street, showing local beer places with small stools, cheap beer, and dishes like pork belly with shrimp sauce and water spinach with garlic. The 'Bun Bo guy' on a motorbike sells dumplings with an open fire, feeding drunk people. Free sausage samples are offered outside a restaurant as a marketing tactic. The Dao family banh mi shop is praised for consistent quality over 2.5 years, with an anecdote about Miss Dao giving a free jar of chilies and asking only for the glass to be returned. The walk ends back at the starting point, with a tease of a future video on a speakeasy bar.
