This joint serves great pho but we ordered other items to share as there were eight of us.
Started with the spring chicken which was marinated in fragrant lemongrass.
The chicken was tender and there was a lovely lemongrass aroma when you ate it.
The grilled fish with Lemongrass was moist and complemented nicely by the sauces.
There was also the crispy pork knuckle which had a lovely thick crispy skin to it just like pork crackling.
For carbs, I liked the pineapple rice which had preserved sausages in it that gave it a smokey twist.
The Brussels sprouts turned out to be my favourite because they were flavourful and they are my favourite roast dinner veggies.
We had ricerolls and there was prawn or mango.
The prawns fared better because of the chives.
On the light side we had the grapefruit salad which wasn't artificially sweetened.
The butter wings are a must order because they are addictive.
The steamed pancakes were really good as they were loaded with minced pork, diced radish and carrots with a hint of black pepper.
For desserts, had the pandan layered pudding which was not too sweet and I quenched my thirst with fresh young coconut water.
Anyway, will return for the noodles.
