what do you guys do there besides eat?

best places to go out and meet (vietnamese)people?

i wanna be more viet, damnit...

Jeeze, Bro, so you wanna to be more Viet,

how about paying more attention to what is going on to our motherland, Vietnam,

and do something to help, such as donate some money to charity such as


www.VietHope.org , www.RoomToRead.org, etc.


Bro, I rarely go out. I usually stay inside. My body is very fragile and sensitive.

Haha, just go to the freaking Phuoc Loc Tho, Vietnamese are everywhere around that area.

Cheapest place to eat is: Everything 99 cents, restaurant their chicken rice is hella good.

i actually do a lot of pro bono work for alpac (Asian Pacific American Legal Center)

we work with quite a few vietnamese americans who need free/cheap legal advice...

also at my new firm, i do most of the pro bono work trying to help the vietnamese community that is stuck in the phillipines achieve either citizenship or emigrate to the states...

although these activities help me feel a bit closer to the vietnamese community, it only allows me to speak/correspond to vietnamese people who are about to go to jail or get deported...

i'd like to meet vietnamese americans that i could actually kick it with, go have a beer or two with... that kind of thing...

Bro, we can hangout on AsiaFinest Viet Forum. There is no need to meet outside.

i used to visit the nudie cafe shops, were vietnamese waitress's serve you wearing bikini's...
although, the food down there is some what of the same taste and quality in monterey park, i would love to visit bolsa again.

i could go for some cafe su da, right now...
there are lots of little gang memebers down there these days.

notaspambot: *walks up to random vietnamese person in Phuoc Loc Tho*
notaspambot: "uh, hi... my name is notaspambot, and i don't have that many vietnamese friends, so would you like to go have chicken rice with me?"
random viet person: "you noi ki vi? Ki than nay dien roi!!!"
notaspambot: "i heard it was really good at Everything 99 cents... my treat "
random viet person: *shakes head and walks away*
notaspambot:
notaspambot: *damn that vi3tgrl408* *shakes fist*

i used to chill at the cafe at Magnolia and Westminster. there's usually older people chilling there.

EDIT: Nevermind, I misread that. You are in the States.

notaspambot: hey dude, how about we get ourselves some pho!!!
viet gangster: du ma mai!!! suund dewecious! let go homie!!!
notaspambot: lets try this cheap place, most foods there are 99 cents!!!
viet gangster: du ma mai!!! suund dewecious! let go homie!!!

di vang II?

i heard they closed that place down... or changed the name or something...

anyways, besides coffee shops and restaurants-- where's like the hangout spot? good bars? lounges? that kind of stuff...

hahahahaha....ok...fine.
This is how guys make friends.
Go to the basketball court where a lot of vietnamese play basketball.
Ask them if they wanna play.
Then when the game is over say something like.

Eh bro, you wanna go kick it? My treat. I want to see how Bolsa is like.

There you made yourself a new Vietnamese guy friend. He will soon introduce you to his whole group. Congrats.

^LOL... that's kinda cute...

gay... but cute...

i'll go to mile square next weekend... heh...

ok dokie good luck!

Not much to do there except eating and go to the supermarkets (almost everything are cheaper than other markets by where I live).

go cruise around wet minh thuh, or go to phuc loc tho and scream out duma bay day ang cuc. everyone who understands viet will want to be ur homie

he said he wants to try out new places, not get shot at....

Don't listen to this brother Socal. He's a crazy guy.

Unless you want to end up as a 40 year old virgin, that is...

That's hilirious

gang activity has been decreasing from what I've noticed. It used to be quite popular back in the day. Nowadays, you'll find a bunch of little hypebeasts runnin around with their latest dunks and AF1's in little saigon.

The Lounge is fun and they got some fine @$$ females working there

Any notable Vietnamese gangs in that area? Just curious.

Cloud 9. best place to drink...it's the most "americanized" quan nhau (viet bar/lounge/restaurant) in OC. it's on brookhurst and heil. we go there almost everyday.

u should check out a viet club sometimes. it's.......different. live vietnamese music....it's quite fun sometimes. there's All Star (fridays & sats) on beach and garden grove. there's Can on euclid n westminster (sundays). Bleu on wednesdays (beach and westminster) they play hip hop but the crowd is 99% vietnamese.

If you enjoy billiard plus drinking, there's the Lounge on beach and chapman. just opened. very nice....not ur typical pool hall. it looks more like a club. very dark with black lights and sexy waitresses.

then there's always the famous coffee shops. there are lots, but u should go to the ones on euclid and westminster: vivid, di vang 2, star. they got some hot girls there.

that's pretty much what the "an choi" people do down here. coffee shops and quan nhau. hope that helped.

let's go get a beer. u know what would be awesome? if a bunch of us on here that are from the OC area meet up to have a few drinks. i think someone should coordinate that. what do u guys think?

Never been to Little Saigon. I live in Seattle area.

bia om all the way bro

if u dont like bia, just om

anyone want to meet me in South Africa

sign me up bro!

this is totally the type of info i was looking for!!! Thanks!!!

so they hang out at the quan nhau, huh? LOL... cool beans...

i used to go to bleu WAY back in the day when it was MVP, and it was karaoke nights on Wed, hehehehe... i prefer it as a bar, but how is it these days?

oh, and i'm totally down with having drinks with Asiafinest's OC people... Good idea!!!

bleu is VERY packed on wednesdays. it's still karaoke night but most of the singers are very good and they sing the latest hiphop songs.

i dont think anyone's down to meet up. they'd rather meet in south africa.

Meeting up off an internet forum is too weird for some people. I gotta admit, I think it's kinda strange and awkward. But who am I to judge? I've met people off of car forums before. I'm not too into the bolsa scene. Not a big fan. Chances are, you'll run into trouble of some sort. And yeah, I heard bleu is pretty packed on wednesday nights. Never heard of alot of these vietnamese clubs/lounges before. It can't be very safe though. On random nights you'll find me at Rack N cue.

monterey park, sgv area pwns little saigon....

if i want to meet girls in dark eyeliner and drink bubble tea, yes...

lol....

Unless you want to play some jungle ball with mad fouling and sh*t talking, stay away from mile square. There's a court on magnolia and hazard. Try that one.

After clubbin around Little Saigon everyone usually goes to the Pho Shop. Im surprised that at 1 or 2 AM in the morning, people are jam packed waiting to get some Pho. Those places look like they are opened 24 hours a day!

^ they should be opened pretty late if they wanna make it seem like VN.

Hey Babyfox143 thanks for the info. I've been asking the local people down there and the be acting like straight b!tches & don't wanna tell nobody where the drinking places are at. By the way do these places stay open real late?

why won't u go to them viet cafe where asian girls serve in bikini or hottie outfits..most of the girls waitress are viets in the OC are hot and I've seen a lot of viet people hang out there ..and the thing that opens really late at night is them 24 hr pho for clubbers..im not viet by the way.

its cool im khmer too i just happen to hang out at Little Saigon since theres always asians clubbin there. People from LB always go down there clubbin.

coo..haha..im khmer 2 dawg..yea im usually in OC if my Taiwanese and and 1 of my korean friends of mind go to those viet cafe where asian girls serve in bikini ..i've only been there once, is a nice spot to chill with ur boyz and watch the sport games on big screen tv..o yeah and Lee's sandwich..haha...gotta stop by there as well..lolz

now, its not worth driving to santa ana or little saigon, i mean you can get the same products and items in SGV or l.a chinatown, as we all know is occupied by viet's.

as for food, id say SGV has the best of what american viet's can offer.

one of my fav's are banh mi and pho.
theres a place named le baguette, french styled banh mi in SGV.
in little saigon, its just the regular, typical banh mi.

I'll admit it, I've had food from little saigon and SGV. To me, they're pretty equal. The plus side to little saigon is having alot more variety.

I wouldn't expect SGV's viet food to be of lower quality. It's only 30 minutes away, what would make it any different from little saigon? lol.

My fav's in SGV for Viet food would be: Vietnam House and Mr. Baguette. I heard Ba Le sandwich shop is good also.

The vegetarian restaurant across from Mr. Baguette in rosemead is spectacular! I think it's called Happy Family of Rosemead or something. Good stuff.

then driving shouldn't be a problem for u..lolz.

no problem. most "quan nhau's" (drinking places) are opened till 12. a few like May Hong, M va Toi, Chot Nho, Song Thuy, sometimes Quan Huyen open till 2. some places will keep open after 2 if u're still in there drinking.

As for the viet clubs....they all close at 2. everything here closes at 12 or 2. Coffee shops close at 11.

Damn, chinese always gotta be better than everyone huh? Ive been to both, lil saigon and sgv area. Id have to admit, Viet girls are more pretty than Chinese chicks. chinese chicks ive seen tend to have that, skinny, 12 year old girl look, no sex appeal look, with no eyelids. chinese males are a fuccen disgrace to the male gender, skinny, pussy wimpy, opposite of a man look.

Vietnamese chicks on the other hand have woman look, a sexy look and are more gorgeous.

And im not viet either im Lao.

i don't remember but i've been to this place before a few times actually.

this restaurant, forgot how it called, it is in vietnamese.

they have good ppo noodle.

yeah same wit OC peeps too. we be rollin up to V20 in da LBC almost erry damm week ahha.

yall forgot to tell da thread starter to be careful when goin to viet coffee shops. dont stare too long.. whether its other niccaz dat be chillin there or at da waitresses.. theres most likely gon be a crazy bf/ ex bf goin there and u dont wanna get yo blocc knocc'd off...

NO HATE INTENDED... just lettin u kno...

and wth does he mean sgv owns oc...? hell naw g its all bout OC. long beach santa ana n garden grove all day!!!
