Enjoyed every single dish here. On three separate occasions, we’ve tried their fresh spring rolls with shrimp and pork belly, stir fried beef (with lemongrass), bahn mi with beef, bahn mi with grilled pork, and of course their beef pho and chicken pho.
Interestingly, the two bahn mi we ordered did not include SWEET pickled veg (which we prefer any way). The beef pho was deep and flavourful. But what surprised us was the chicken pho - I don’t know whether it’s because we asked for spicy and therefore there was a lot of kick to the broth or whether they normally put in that much of white pepper, whatever it was, it was great, really wakes you up! (Regrettably, I did not take a photo of the unassuming-looking chicken pho.)
On recommendation of the owner, we also tried their egg coffee, both cold and hot. Very creamy and decadent, they had it made for us without condensed milk and only put a lil sugar in with the egg yolk so that they could achieve the creamy consistency.
Restaurant really nicely decorated too, upstairs a little hot during midday (their rest room was upstairs), but I’m sure at night it would have been comfortable to have drinks and Vietnamese Bia at...
Read moreOne of the best beef pho in Bangkok if you ask me kids & me (the other is at Le Dalat)!
Authentic broth delicately spiced, never a drop left in our bowls, all the fresh trimmings of basil, razor coriander, bean sprouts, lime, freshly cut chilies...My kids and I love the Pho Special with freshly sliced beef, beef balls, tender tendons & tripe. Order a fresh coconut juice to wash it down!
Fried spring rolls are usually the other Viet barometer for me, they’re decent here but I think the wrapper could be more delicate and crispy! Owner Jean is Vietnamese, speaks Vietnamese, Cantonese (my mother tongue as his parents lived for years in my hometown of Hong Kong), French as he was raised in Paris where they had their first branch of Pho in the 14th arrondissement (hence the name here), English & Thai perfectly.
Super service in a sweet little local spot close to my yoga studio. I often slip out alone for a quickie...
Read moreCraved pho enough to take a far drive here. I don’t expect them to be anywhere near what I can get from Ho Chi Minh.
Ordered a pho beef with beef ball. Also ordered a salad roll and lemon tea. Total cost was 515 baht. A little on the high side but it was actually pretty good.
The pho was maybe a 6.5 on its own. But with added enhancers like the line, fresh chilli, bean sprouts, mint leave and a generous squeeze of sriracha, it bumped it up to an 8 for me.
Salad roll was decent. Wrap was soft and moist. It was not premade and refrigerated that’s for sure. Vermicelli inside was the really thin one. Didn’t skimp out on the details. The sauce isn’t your usual peanut sauce but they gave me the sweeten fish sauce. Not bad.
Plenty of seating there. There’s three levels so no problems getting a seat here. There were only three tables at around 4. Hopefully they survive because it’s actually decent pho...
