Great value can be had here at this little Viet eatery in Crawford Lane, where Chicken and Beef Noodle sets which include fresh/fried spring rolls + Viet iced tea are priced at $11 and $12 respectively. Add $2.50 to that for Viet drip coffee (hot/iced).

You can always tell when a dish is prepared from the heart. That was the case here, through subtle, yet significant touches like the use of kampong chicken instead of the usual, which made it extra tender and flavourful, enhancing the soul-comforting chicken broth. The beef slices were succulent as well, although I personally would prefer the beef broth to be more robust.

If you're dining with a partner, I'd recommend ordering both fresh and fried spring rolls to share. Both are delicious, especially the fried ones - crisp and oh-so-juicy.
