A line of restaurants in the block across the street from the Vietnamese/American Association at 55 Mac Dinh Chi tempted me but I opted for American steak.(not served in these restaurants). One night a “musical group” played in the street and to my sorrow I declined an invitation to dine and listen. I was taking a 3-day test for graduate school admission given at the Association building and needed sleep. My room came with a choice of young women and I wanted a massage.
