Such a perfect bowl in this rainy sweater weather. A bowl of piping hot soup with a hint of lemongrass and coriander. It had a generous serving of tender sliced beef and also beef meatballs. Sprinkled with crunchy onions, beansprout and filled with slippery white noodle. It reminded me of tomyam soup but with a different flavor profile.
I like how it's not too spicy, but you can adjust the level of garlic and spice with condiments by the side. Just a tinge of spice on the lips and palate. It's super warm and the very definition of comfort food. The taste of the herbs wasn't too in-your-face which is always a problem I have with Vietnamese food. The meat wasn't rubbery and overcooked and the meatballs in particular were just bouncy and juicy enough.
I exited the homely, comfy restaurant profusely thanking my dining partner for intro-ing me to this little place tucked away among the office buildings.

Oh my goodness these are so delicious. I was initially put off by the strange summer rolls; stuffed full of noodles and wrapped in a chewy skin. But oh boy these were a fantastic medley of textures and flavors. The soft slippery noodle, bouncy sweet prawn, crunch of the vegetables and that burst of fruity tanginess from a stick of pineapple.
The deep fried spring rolls were delicious too, fried to order, evident from their crispiness and warmth when they arrived. They were stuffed with a mixture of mushroom and vegetables, and actually dripped with juiciness as I bit into it. Such a delight. Kinda like a freshly fried ngoh hiang.
