Alright alright alright. Vietnam Noodle Star is my favourite Vietnamese restaurant uptown. First off, their service is great; the staff are attentive and the kitchen prepares your food at light speed.
Many of their items are under $10 (woot!!!), Which is awesome. Their pho is amazing, and I always opt for their large size (they offer small and large, both under $10). I can be quite sensitive to MSG (I get the tingles on my tongue), so it's nice to note that they use little to no MSG in their broth. Despite this, their broth is always on point and incredibly flavorful.
I also ordered a side of deep fried lemon grass chicken wings, which was also very tasty. It's impressive how they can make the outside so crispy (but not oily) while leaving the inside really hot and tender.
I usually order a Vietnamese style coffee (they add condensed milk--yummy!) to go with my meal, but today I ordered a "3 colour shake", which was a cold drink made with red bean, yellow bean and green jelly with coconut milk. It was delicious and I will be ordering it again.
A favorite of mine and it's always a big hit with me and my family.
