what can 15 dollars do nowadays. came to Thai shop more than nth time.. I think this past two visit seems different. I think it has new store owner although the menu of the present shop and the older shop seemed to have similar items on the menu.
the food cost an average of 13 dollars (at least), it comes with hot tea and if you want a can of coke.. can always pay extra 2 dollars for a can of coke which isn’t over priced as compared to most restaurants.
the food isn’t that bad. pork meat, egg, vegetables, and 2 more in the menu (which I don’t know the name but still am eating). the staff is very vigilant.. I looked for some vinegar and chilies and he immediately got some chillies for me, although I prefer the old shop which has lots of freshly chopped chillies, garlic and vinegar too.
but this shop isn’t that bad. still would love to come back on my next visit to Cabramatta. the shops is located a few minutes walk from Cabramatta train station. Approximately, 5-6 minutes walk (unless you walk faster than me). service sized is really good as compared to the usual restaurants I go who would easily charge me 15 dollars for...

What I didn't like so much was that I got this massive whiff of cigarette smoke. I’m assuming it came from an outside draft (as nobody in their right mind would be smoking indoors these days). The smell was so strong I had to triple check that the guy behind me wasn’t the one who lit up.
Customer service was great and food was quite...
Read moreThe all-rounder.
Service: fast and polite, straightforward service. We were sat immediately at a table close to an open window. Menus were brought out quickly. Food came out around 10 minutes after ordering.
Food: one of the best com tam dac biet I have had. The suon (pork chop) was juicy and well-seasoned. The bun bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup) was also pretty good considering they don't specialise in it.
Atmosphere and pricing: open windows looking out to the street was nice. Tables were fairly clean (as expected for a local Viet place). Food pricing was reasonable, and there was a great range of food and drink (hence the all-rounder remark).
Would definitely come back when I am...
