CoCo Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

From No Blood to Bloody Steak.

5 November 2026

Okay, I used to be VERY loud about saying NO to STEAK. NO TO BLOOD.

But guess who's the vampire now?

Apparently, I've developed a little obsession with hunting for fresh meat, especially when it's beautifully cooked and still blushing in the middle.

Medium rare. Juicy, tender, and absolutely unapologetic.

I visited CoCo Dining in Ho Chi Minh City, and honestly, I'm still not over it.

The meat, the texture, the richness, and that bloody-looking sauce. Every bite felt like a little awakening. I don't know what kind of spell they put on that plate, but something in my taste buds has definitely changed.

It's funny how the things we once rejected can become the very things we keep craving.

I went from avoiding the sight of blood to appreciating every little drop on my plate.

Perhaps I've always had a vampire hiding somewhere inside me. I just needed the right steak to bring it out.

Verdict: The steak won. My former self lost.

And yes, I'm already craving another round.

If you're visiting Ho Chi Minh City and looking for somewhere for a proper dinner, CoCo Saigon is worth adding to your food list.

One thing to know: CoCo Saigon is home to three different concepts:

The steak experience I remember is particularly relevant to the Grill concept, which offers à la carte dining. Both Dining and Grill share the same address.
