The city known for Creole, Cajun and soul food also has an enormous and vibrant Vietnamese community, so if you're bound for New Orleans, don't miss out on the city's best-kept culinary secret. | 5 Things You Didn't Know You Can Do in Acapulco There's more to Acapulco than baking on a beach all day, then heading to a club to dance the night away.
