Entertainer Trấn Thành has drawn social media attention by recommending a discreet eatery in Ho Chi Minh City. The establishment, located on Nguyen Huu Tho Street in District 7, specializes in ‘bún cá thác lác’ (featherback fish noodle soup) with pork ribs and bitter melon.

Because the shop lacks a formal sign and is tucked away, Trấn Thành noted that diners may need to search carefully to find it. The recommendation has caused a divide among online commenters; while many are eager to locate the address, regular customers have expressed concern that the sudden popularity may lead to overcrowding and seating shortages.
