| - WOW, poor little Ginger has only 1 review? I'm surprised!
Ginger is a great little vietnamese "fast food" style place on the Bloor Annex strip.
As the previous reviewer mentioned, the portions are BIG and they don't skimp on the meat, which is unusual for your typical Annex asian food joint. The food has a nice "fresh" feel - nothing is served greasy or overly fatty.
The menu is big, consisting of mostly Vietnamese and some Thai dishes. 4-5 different varieties of spring rolls, 4-5 "salad" rolls (the fresh rice paper rolls), pho, bun dishes (vermicelli), various pad thai, udon and stir fries and a slew of vegetarian options.
They also do some really awesome thai style salads - papaya salad with beef, and a mango salad with chicken & shrimp. Both are delicious.
Prices here are really cheap - $5.00-$7.50 for most entrees, salad/spring rolls are all $1.50-$2.00
They also serve really cheap beer here, domestic bottles are $2.95
Decor is modern but plain, place is clean. You order from the cashier and you get a number. Food comes out uber quickly (3-5 mins) so it's a great place if you're in a hurry.
Overall, a really great place for cheap eats. I typically pop in here when the Sushi on Bloor line up is long and I'm too hungry to wait (it's only a couple doors over). In the summer they open up the front so you can sit, eat and people watch in a few seats that overlook the street.
