The food was great. It was similar to what we ate when we had Vietnamese and Thai food in Malaysia. The pad thai was quite good. The noodles were not overcooked.
The beef in the Pho Bo was tender and the soup was nice and comforting. My husband enjoyed it and he likes vietnamese food a lot.
The spring rolls were also good, crunchy and the veggies inside were not soggy.
The vietnamese rice paper rolls and the sauce were also good.
The brown sugar milk boba is similar to what we had in other boba shops. However the boba here was not chewy. I just prefer chewy boba.
We were excited when we saw that they have Salted egg bao. It’s our favorite dessert. The taste is similar to what we ate in Malaysia however here, the texture of the salted egg sauce is not runny. It was still a little cold inside. Maybe needs more steaming. The creamy salted egg taste is still there though.
Overall we still enjoyed the food and finished all of it. The ambience was nice since the place was not crowded...
Read moreO Viet - Thai é um restaurante simples, de cozinha vietnamita / tailandesa, que pode ser uma boa alternativa para quem mora pelo bairro, onde por vezes faltam opções. Não é, contudo, um restaurante que entregue uma experiência gastronómica superior, mas provavelmente também não o pretende ser. Tem uma boa seleção de entradas, pratos de arroz, e de massas, e alguns mariscos. Alguns pratos já estão pre-preparados, e não há muita sofisticação no que nos apresentam. Não há também sabores muito especiais ou curiosos. Segue assim a nossa seleção:
Combo Starter - que inclui summer roll, gamba panada, fried wonton e spring roll. Os 3 últimos não eram home made, e estavam um pouco oleosos e com pouco recheio. O summer roll tinha pouco sabor e excesso de menta, para mim.
Pad Thai de frango - bom sabor e foi servido com um molho caseiro picante à parte, que era fantástico. Picante, mas super saboroso! A massa era particularmente boa.
Caril Massaman - ótimo molho de caril, mas demasiada batata num caril de frango, beringela e batata.
Sobremesa - Mochi de gelado de chocolate - muito industrial, e pouco especial, mas estava OK, geladinho dentro e fluffy no exterior. Foi pena terem colocado um toping de chocolate, que além de não fazer sentido, ainda dificultou para agarrar com as mãos sem me sujar.
É possível que volte, uma vez que está muito perto de casa, mas não me deslocaria intencionalmente à zona para experimentar.
Preço, com duas imperiais,...
Read moreThe best Thai food I had outside Thailand! We were so surprised thinking it might be greasy and flavourless but it’s the complete opposite. We had spring rolls, nem, fried shrimps, pad Thai and red curry. The inside has lovely wooden panelling, impoverishment could be the bright lights and some of the walls could do with a warmer colour. The service was friendly and pleasant. We will...
