After a late morning stroll in Covent Garden and ending up in Chinatown one weekend,
My Fiance and I started to feel a bit hungry ...
This time, we didn't want to go for the usual chinese Dim Sum
so decided to try the Vietnamese Restaurant with a bright Red entrance
located just next to one of Chinatown's Big Metal Gates.
To keep it light and healthy, we had the Vietnamese Spring Rolls for starters -
thin rice noodles, fresh & crisp mint leaves, crushed peanuts and cooked prawns
wrapped beautifully in wafer thin wrappers.
Dip in the sweet chilli sauce and yummm !
It was so Fresh and so Tasty!
For Mains, I decided to go for the typical Vietnamese Pho -
flat rice noodle soup, with beef balls and beef slices.
This is served with a side plate of Fresh coriander and mint leaves,
beansprouts and chopped fresh chilli.
We also had a side of Morning Glory to accompany our food.
My fiance, {also my foodie partner} went for a rice dish.
Beautifully fried pork in vietnamese special sauce.
Not really sure what this really consisted of but it tasted really nice !
The dish also came with a slice of what tasted like a Pork Terrine which was okay -ish.
Overall, the meal was very satisfying.
It was like having home cooked food in a very casual and relaxed atmosphere
and even the service was good : attentive and friendly.
The bill was very reasonable {on the cheap side} and it offered everything
we were expecting for a light lunch : good food, relaxed surrounding
and not too heavy on the wallet!
