That's riiiiight. I'm a fan !
The thing is I like this place for many reasons. Most reviews in this section mention the service. While not the smiliest bunch in the world there has been quite a change recently. The restaurant renovated and the staff has changed quite a bit. The beauty of this place is not to pick and chat with the staff... it's more about enjoying a good bowl of soup ! And oh boy oh boy oh boy It's dang good!
I'm a bit of fan of Pho Ga and Pho Bo soups (chicken and beef :) ) and I have been in quite a few vietnamese soup places. Most Noodle places have these cutsey dutsey presentation with menus you feel could have been designed by Apple. In the end though you end up with a nice bowl of hot water with little onions floating. You know what... I'm not a tea type person for soup persona. So what do I look for you ask ?
Well it's a soup that actually tastes something. If you are familiar with how these soups are made you will notice that for one the base broth has been cooking for at least half a day to a day to have that kind of consistency. Second, most soup places
have BOILED chicken. These guys had the genius of using something called THE GRILL! That might seem a little surprising but in the end it makes quite a difference.
I have brought many friends here and they always have loved it. All of them come back for more.
So if your a soup boy or girl and you want a happy soup well soup away sailor and get your spoon because the next mess on your shirt will certainly not be the Captain's...
Ah oy matee. Arr Arr.. Cough... hack! Well you get the picture.
