CNNGo newspaper used to say: “The USA has produced mobile restaurants but it is Vietnam which is the paradise of street food”. Taking a stroll around Saigon streets, you will come across numerous peddled wares on the pavement with innumerable noshes appealing to only teenagers but students and even officers as well. It is the reason why noshing is not a demand only but a typical cultural feature of Saigonese. To meet this need, a new kind of noshing has been introduced, which ensures the nutrition, hygiene and food safety in the modern society. You will not nosh on the pavement but sit in clean restaurants which remain the comfortable “spirit” of noshing.
 
Choosing for itself an easy-to-remember name, “Thím 7 Rụng Răng” (Funny Toothless Woman) restaurant makes a strong
impression on patrons thanks to that name. Its design is quite simple with all of tables and chairs made of bamboo so as to bring patrons the feeling of closeness and comfort.
 
The restaurant serves various sweets (mainly sweet soup) and savories. “Singaporean bánh lọt sweet soup” is the first one you should have a try. If you are familiar with Vietnamese bánh lọt sweet soup, then with the combination of jackfruit, “Singaporean bánh lọt sweet soup” will become completely new but still appetizing to Vietnamese. Besides, there are also other sweet soups which are no less delicious: 8-color mixed sweet soup; Thiên Sứ sweet soup; Ruby white bean sweet soup… You should not think much of the price since a glass of sweet soup will fill your eyes and taste with the maximum price of just 20,000 VNĐ.
 
To savories, “five-color stir-fried corn” can be considered the unique dish. With five colors from mushroom, corn, carrot, green bean and dried shrimps, the nosh attracts guests not only by sight but stimulates the food avidity from the first flavors. Furthurmore, you cannot find a pizza with only 15.000 VNĐ or a “Korean rice pancake” at the same price. “Thím 7 Rụng Răng” will be promisingly a great dining place for teenagers and families with children…
