My review here is strictly for the Bun Bo Hue. I was so excited to give this a try after reading several reviews that this placed serves the Bun Bo Hue in town.
Sadly, I was not impressed at all.
First, let me tell you about this dish.
Bun Bo Hue is a popular Vietnamese soup that is made with rice vermicelli noodles (Bun) and beef (Bo) and Hue is for the city in central Vietnam. The dish is greatly admired for its balance of SPICY, SOUR, SALTY and SWEET flavors and the predominant flavor of LEMON GRASS.
For me, the broth was not spicy, sour, salty or sweet at all. It was just salty. Huge letdown.
Second, there were NO BLOOD CUBES in my dish - which was what I was looking forward to the most.
Third, I wanted to see some PORK KNUCKLES. NONE! I just want the real deal. Not the washed down version.
Wishing someone would open up a real Bun Bo Hue shop in Las Vegas ....
