| - Bustling on a Thursday night, Saigon Star was the champ of the plaza. Lovely decor - classy and yet casual. My family and I headed here as it seems to be the only place to offer curry crab (or crabs in general, actually).
It was my dad's and little sis' birthday dinner and boy, did we go all out. Curry crab (I used this curry on their delicious bread + everything else imaginable),
fresh shrimp mango salad (absolutely adored this!),
veggie spring rolls (LOVE),
veggie platter (a beauty),
sambal wok clams (saucy!),
coriander honey chicken (so utterly tender),
malaysian wok bean stalk (mmm, flavourful),
pad thai noodles (staggering portion),
charbroiled shrimp on sugar-cane (interesting appetizer) and finally,
beef noodles a la saigon star (this was only okay - I've had better :P).
I swear the food came within ten minutes - one after the other, it was an unceasing onslaught of sheer gloriousness. The Mun Bean + Red Bean + Coconut crushed ice drink came almost immediately. Really tasty stuff.
Saigon Star was a winner. Not only is its service prompt and friendly... more importantly, the food was colourful, light and //most definitely// flavourful! We also received a complimentary dessert on the house. Some sort of sweet taro bowl w/ clear tapioca! YUM!! :D
