Average Vietnamese restaurant serving up a wide variety of different dishes - pho, rice,…read morevermicelli, apps, etc etc etc!
They offer lunch specials here which I believe just entails your entree coming with your choice of drink. This restaurant does get quite busy during the lunch rush, but there are quite a number of tables available here. Turnover is fast though, as with most HK restaurants during lunch time.
We ordered:
Grilled Pig Neck Vermicelli - Pork neck was quite nice, grilled fresh and still pretty juicy! It's not really marinated in anything strong, so you mainly taste that pork aroma. The meat is served on a bed of cold vermicelli and lettuce, both of which are v phreshhh. However, the type of vermicelli they use here is not my favourite (more springy than I would like)... perhaps I'm just used to the type that they typically serve back home in TO (less springy, more carb-y feel).
Grilled Lemon Grass Pork with Shrimp Chimps - Again, freshly grilled meat is always good! Meat is served on top of a thin rice wrapper which is laid on top of the shrimp chimps to prevent the meat juice from making your chips get all soggy n gross. Love that thoughtfulness! Fried shallots and green onion oil are then sprinkled atop your chips. It's also served with nem nuong, which you just pork some on top too. This actually makes for quite a messy appetizer because everything ends up spilling everywhere LOL. Taste-wise, it's alright... nothing very mind-blowing.
