Cam Nguyen is a stylish little Vietnamese restaurant located just a few steps from the Geilenkirchen City Center. The prices were very reasonable for the amount of food that you get. I had the Bun Thit Pork with an add on of springroll, and the only real disappointment was that the pork was fried instead of grilled, which left the dish a little less flavorful than I am used to.
The woman (owner) who runs the restaurant is friendly, but speaks only German and Vietnamese. They do provide a menu that has English descriptions, so ordering food is not a problem.
The place is cozy with about 6 or so tables, but it was not very busy at the time that we were there. From other reviewers it appears the place can get crowded at times, so call ahead if you're worried about getting a seat!
Remember to bring your cash or hit up an ATM, because this establishment does not take credit cards.
I'll definitely be back to try out their Vietnamese Noodle / Pho dish, and report back on whether it is similar to the pho that I have grown up to know! read more
