| - Today was our first visit to Mekong Plaza together and, after browsing in a couple of the stores, decided to have some lunch.
This restaurant happened to be located closest to where we were in the mall so we checked out the menu and decided to give it a try.
My girlfriend and I shared a bowl of noodle soup with fish soup base, vermicelli noodles, beef tendon balls, and Hong Kong dumplings.
The portion size was was plenty for the both of us.
The broth was authentic enough for a small restaurant this located in a mall. It was satisfying with fairly good depth of flavor, which is, of course, the most important component of noodle soup.
There was a decent amount of noodles in the dish, the consistency and flavor of which was good, and it did not taste like the instant noodles they sometimes use in restaurants like this.
The beef tendon was tender and flavorful, the veggies were cooked properly, and the dumplings were a nice, yummy addition to the dish.
My girlfriend, who is a native of mainland China, was quite satisfied, which is a very good sign when it comes to this type of cuisine.
The service was good but perhaps a bit slow (they were rather busy when we were there), the prices were reasonable, and we both agreed that this is a nice place for lunch.
