"Tongue-Tingling Vietnamese Don't judge a restaurant by its facade. Located in a gritty area of Bellavista (start of Patronato, garment district), Vietnam Discovery looks more like a takeout joint than a restaurant. Enter inside to another world. The restaurant opens up with a large Buddha statue and a fashionable crowd. This project was the answer to many Santiaguinos' prayers for bona fide Vietnamese (and southeast Asian) cuisine. Nearly everything we've tried on the menu has been delicious; we always start with their crunchy spring rolls with herbs. Reservations essential. Loreto 324, Bellavista Phone: 56 (2) 2737 2037"
