This hidden gem is tucked away in a small plaza just a few blocks from Little Saigon. Restaurant is clean, not too crowded. We ordered their famously known for Vietnamese pancake/crepe and anchovy hot pot.
Here is the verdict:
- Vietnamese pancake /crepe was delicious. The crispness of the batter was balanced out the softness of bean sprouts, mung bean, slice onions and mushrooms. I like the shrimp here was totally peeled. Yayyy! Slice pork was lean, no fat at all. Very healthy. It served with mixed fish sauce and all the trimmings such as lettuce, various mints... Sooo good. Lol.
- Anchovy hot pot. OMG, it reminded me of my mom's cooking. Lol. Although the aroma of the anchovy soup is not too strong, however, the taste was all there. The sweetness and saltiness was just perfect. I like the taste of eggplant, lemongrass, pork belly, catfish, shrimp... What can I say. Heavenly good. It also served with lots of trimmings including lemon, lettuce, shredded cabbage, bitter melon (this is new to me, but it's oh so good!)
My husband, my sister (from Canada) and me, we finished the soup to the last drop. Haha. So satisfied with the food, we also ordered to go their catfish with sour soup, caramelize braised catfish and anchovy noodle soup. They were all good.
Service was friendly and attentive. The lady owner even gave us free flan for dessert (it was good too. Seriously.)
My family, we'll definitely come back to try some new dishes next time.
