Make them, it is easy to do, but if you really want to buy, go to Vege's in District 7. The seasonings are only peppers and tomatoes, easy enough to make on your own. Send her a cookbook that tells how to make Salsa, it says you need Cummin, but you dont have to I make fresh salsa here all the time, Taco seasoning is a bit different, but for HCMC no one would complain, and the tortillas all you need is corn flour and some water, she can even make her own corn flour if she really wanted to, just dry out corn then grind it into a powder.

Don't know about HCMC. There's a little bakery in Hue that has an international foods section. It's across the street from the "Dong Ba" marketplace, about half a block north of the Truong Tien bridge. They have taco shells, flour tortillas, canned frijoles, even taco meat seasoning packets.

They also have Barilla spaghetti and Ragu sauce!

Wow vietnam taco!! I am an ammature chef and that is a great idea. All you need is beef, take it home and ground the hell outta it. There are peppers and tomatoes everywhere to make salsa. I dont know how to make hard tacos but with flour you can make soft taco.

Last time i was there and found some flour so i made pancakes. No butter so i used a bit of pig fat. No syrup so i put sugar and sprinkled powered sugar. Haha..now my aunt sells it on here street cart. Next time i go imma bring a tub of syurp. And some fruit seeds like avacados and err dont know what friut will survive the humid south uhh cherries?

I'm pretty sure they had taco shells and seasoning, along with a lot of other hard to find items.

They have everything shipped in from America, so the prices are high. 300K for a can of Folder's??? No thanks!

mix the flour (corn for corn tortilla, or wheat for flour tortilla) with some water, get a dough, work your dough for a while, then roll it out thin, and bake it or fry it until it gets hard, there is your hard taco you just have to put it into the form, and while it cooks it will start to get hard still but it is flexable this is when you would start to fold it for the form. They have butter in any big market, and at many western shops you can even find the syrup, and they even have pancake mix at the western shops
