la papaye verte

One diner said the fresh spring rolls might be the best they had ever tasted. The starters also include steamed and fried spring rolls, while the green papaya salad comes with a choice of chicken, beef or shrimp. A diner who ordered the salad noted that it was served with leafy greens and a generous wedge of lemon. Share a few starters before moving on to noodles or rice.

For a main, choose pho ga, rice noodles with chicken, or pho bo, rice noodles with beef. Bun bo Hue, a spicy beef noodle soup from Hue, is another option. Diners have praised the texture of the pho noodles and the tenderness of the meat, with one noting that coriander added a fresh accent. Bun bo Hue is a good choice for anyone who enjoys heat; one diner found it distinctly spicy.

At lunch, sets of pho ga or pho bo, each with a side dish and free drinks, cost ¥1,300. The bun bo Hue set is ¥1,400, also with a side dish and free drinks. Rice-focused options include the daily plate lunch and a fried-rice plate lunch with two side dishes, soup and free drinks; both are listed at ¥1,500. For an evening meal to share, one pair ordered stir-fried water spinach with garlic, steamed spring rolls and Vietnamese-style steamed rice, and said the dishes left them full.
