The spring rolls & pho (pot au feu) are totally yummy. Nice smoothie drinks too. Do not be off-put by the simple, almost spartan furnishings, the cuisine itself is very authentic and excellent value for money. Immediately opposite Pepito's so a good place for lunch on a grocery shopping expedition.
