| - This is my favorite Vietnamese place in the city.
Why? Because I am poor. I am poor, and this dainty little hole in the wall is ridiculously cheap. And delicious. That's a winning combo for any 20-something.
I've seen dubious things here. I've seen a fish in their decorative tank that looked like it would go meet the good Fish Lord at any second. I've seen children that must be no older than 12 busing tables and bringing me water. They're cute, but I think that's illegal. I've seen two patchouli-smelling hippies groping one another in the back corner over two hot steaming bowls of soup.
But none of those things can ruin this place for me. Know why?
1. Big portions. You will not leave hungry unless you're some sort of eating demi-god.
2. Delicious bubble teas. You can ask for real fruit if that sort of thing is important to you. As for me, I don't care. I just like slurping up those little bubble things.
3. Everything is good. I normally stick to my traditional vermicelli fare, but I've sampled other things - lemongrass something-or-other, spring rolls, veggie rolls, skewers, soup.. it's all good.
4. Visual aids on the menu. Seriously, I just stare at those photos until I'm hungry enough to eat something - which is usually right away.
This is your perfect dining spot if you want to get in, get loaded full of food and then roll your smiling, bloated butt back home.
