Craving Vietnamese food but not willing to drive to Chinatown to our favorite place. So we went to a back up Vietnamese joint near home.
Ordered the kids chicken fried rice which was enough to feed two kids. A+ from me on portion, but my kids didn't like. It could be the chicken vs Chinese sausage pork fried rice.
*Maybe have that as a kid option as well.
Ordered the kids pho with meatballs and that was perfect.
I ordered the Bun Rieu, soup flavor was delicious. Although, the protein had real shrimps instead of crab and shrimp clusters, this was odd to me since I'm used to having it with ground up crab and shrimp and none of that was there. Plenty of tofus and tomatoes if that is what you're into. As for me, I would not order this again.
My daughter ordered the Pho Dac Biet, which is always a favorite and never disappoint.
I'll stick to my usual of Bun Thit Noung or Pho Tai next time and avoid the Bun Rieu. As for the fried rice just order the regular Chinese sausage fried rice and take the rest as leftovers.
