a simple pho for locals only 20-25k but foreigners will be 40-55k

After being overcharged few times, i always ask price first n walk away if they quote high price.
Or eat at places w clear pricing stated.
Many locals especially lowly educated are jealous of us foreigners coming to enjoy their cheap living costs so they think of ways to get back at us. The higher educated ones much friendlier.
So beware of them n don't trust them too much.
And if u are asking for directions, they might point u the wrong way intentionally.
