A solid 3 star. I was wandering around the neighbourhood and saw how full the tiny restaurant is so i decided to give it a try. The front of their window said their their bo bun (vermicelli) is their speciality so i figured why not (to this day i still don't understand why all these traiteurs say they have thai food but they never really do).
Anyway, i paid for the bo bun up front for 5.50 EUR and then got some dimsum with chinese garlic leeks (yum!) 3.50 EUR. The price is definitely right here. The dimsums werent fantastic or anything - a little undercooked and not enough stuffing for the shells, but its hard to say no to the fact that they had chinese leek dimsum. The bo bun had the same feel to it as well, it was decent but just felt a little skimpy on everything overall. The nem had more skin then stuffing, but i was surprised there as chicken, despite how little. i can't say that having the bo bun alone would e filling.
Considering it was noon on a wednesday, i was a bit surprised at how non-stop the traffic was. The place never stopped being filled, and you are asked to sit wherever there's space, so do expect to share tables with people you dont know. it could be better, but it could be a lot worse. read more
