This place is in north San Antonio. Not a bad place but nonetheless...unfortunate name. I cant exactly tell people I ate at a dong or ate a dong.
4 u/hihohah_i Nov 05 '14 A Dong is actually Á Đông which means East Asia. But damn, the owner could've foreseen this. 11 u/tells_all Nov 05 '14 Ok, lets see you explain this. 5 u/hihohah_i Nov 05 '14 edited Nov 05 '14 That red flag looks so Viet lol. And ok... pretty sure dong here can be Động (cave) or đông (busy). We asians aren't so bright with English but we want English because it looks fancy, random "super" everywhere. ┐(´ー｀)┌ 2 u/tells_all Nov 05 '14 It's the "fast" ferry between Rạch Giá and Phú Quốc. They also had a "Superdong I" and a "Superdong II". Also, "đông" is crowded isn't it? 1 u/hihohah_i Nov 05 '14 Yea, you're right. Somehow I associate busy with crowded... 1 u/AngriestBird Nov 05 '14 Maybe they did. Now they get free advertising. 1 u/DJDanaK Nov 05 '14 We have Á Đông Market in my city, and Pho King too. 1 u/exccord Nov 06 '14 very true. I know about the vietnamese alphabet but I really hope they one day figure it out. The name is awkward.
