Nah, the real Viet place is where the old men congregate to smoke cigarettes and play pachisi all day.

We have a local coffee and bahn mi place that had to buy a whole other set of outdoor tables and chairs to set up away from the other customers, chasing off the gaggle of old men gambling became too time consuming, so they just gave in and planned around it.

Never start a terf war with old vietnamese men, it never pans out.

Oh so that new place that opened up next to my local Walmart is Vietnamese; there's always a bunch of old dudes from the kitchen (I assume from the aprons) playing dice and smoking right next to the front door lol

Prob, pachisi does feature a fair amount of dice action. Unfortunately the gambling itself doesn't really narrow it down too much. East Asian peeps tend to like their gambling, myself included.
