London|My Secret Vietnamese Spot 🍜
I've been coming to this hidden gem for over a decade! 🕰️✨ Brought countless friends here, and they all fell in love. It recently rebranded as Song Hong (used to be Mien Trey), but the location, decor, and menu are almost unchanged—still my go-to for comforting soups and noodles. Just a 10-min walk from Clapham Junction. Recently went with my girls, and while still delicious, everything tasted slightly sweeter than before. Here's what I always order: 🍗 Chargrilled Quail with Honey Juicy, tender quail with a smoky charred finish—the honey glaze is chef's kiss! 🦀 Soft Shell Crab Packed with creamy roe! Could be crispier, but still so flavorful. 🥞 Vietnamese Crispy Pancake Think of it as a savory crepe stuffed with stir-fried veggies—wok hei perfection! 🍚 Steam Rice Rolls A must-try Vietnamese classic—silky, delicate, and so comforting. 🍜 Pho (Any Variety!) I get the Special with brisket, slices, and meatballs. The broth? Rich, fragrant, soul-warming. 🍛 Curry Used to be perfectly balanced, but this visit was oddly sweeter. Still tasty though! This place is my ultimate comfort food sanctuary. Hope you love it too!
