One of our after-work entertainment is watching Mikey Chen and Strictly Dumplings on YouTube. In the most recent video we watched, he enjoyed a bowl of pho and other Vietnamese dishes. Thus, we decided to go to the closest Vietnamese restaurant to our place: Viet Flavour Restaurant.
We used to have Express Pho a couple blocks away, but it has closed down to give way for the new sky train station.
Today, we ordered two main dishes, an appetizer, and a dessert.
Pho Dac Biet Special beef noodle soup (pho) with rare beef, brisket, beef balls, and tripe |
Delicious! |
It's so delicious I want to cry. I tried adding Sriracha to see its flavour, and I am not a fan of adding it to my pho. It adds heat, but that's about it. I love my pho bowl as is.
Com Suon, Cha, Cha Gio Grilled lemongrass pork, chicken, and spring roll on rice |
This is hubby's order. Of course, I would order my favourite beef stew if he ordered pho, but that's just a good reason to come back.
Cha Gio Vietnamese deep-fried pork spring rolls |
It's hard to go wrong with spring rolls. It's crunchy outside and porky inside.
Kem chuoi Chien Ice cream fried banana |
The dessert is like our turon from the Philippines, but without the sugar coating on the spring roll wrapper.
Overall, Viet Flavour Restaurant is a great source of Vietnamese food. I'll come back to try their Vietnamese beef stew.
