Usually when I visit a Vietnamese restaurant I don't expect to have good services, I just expect it to be clean, quick and cheap.
I walked into Kimpo with the same expectations and I am pleasantly surprised. The storefront just look a little old and dated for a new place? But the inside looks brand new and clean.
The waiter is the most attentive and friendly one I met at a Vietnamese restaurant and I been to quite a few. He anticipated my needs even before I know what I need?! I was the only one in the restaurant so maybe it would be different if the place is busy.
House Special Fukein Noodles Large ($7.95)
- Chicken Soup base is nice and savoury... not oily at all... looks clear but has great flavours... So good on a cold day
- Wish for more yellow noodle, seems to have a huge portion of vermicelli
- Vietnamese Sausages missing and only have a few piece of pork
- garnishes are nice with tons of chives and green onions
- The deep fried shrimp chips would be so much better served separate since it got all soggy when I start eating it
I asked for fresh chili, my waiter came back with 2 types: Thai and Scotch Bonnet.. saying he is not sure which one I like
While the Scotch bonnet bringing tears in my eyes, he got me another napkin without me asking...
I definitely will be coming back to Kimpo as there are not too may good decent Pho places in the area.. and I need my Vietnamese food fix often!!
