Stopped in for lunch and had the beef lemongrass soup and lavender lemonade. The soup had just the right amount of heat and had good flavor. The lemonade was perfect not super sweet and the lavender added a nice touch. My order came out fairly quickly and the people working were friendly.
This crab soup special from broken rice easily makes my “top 3 best things I’ve eaten” on this trip. We went to The Pig and the Lady the day before, which is the Vietnamese restaurant everyone recommended to us and both of us loved broken rice more. The crab broth is so aromatic (I poured it in the bowl post-first photo - swipe right to see the after shot). There’s rice vermicelli noodles, fresh crab, Vietnamese ham, tofu, tomato and homemade meatballs with pork and crab 😍😍😍 I recommend getting their coconut tapioca (che) for dessert 😋😋😋
Menu is a little smaller than a standard Vietnamese restaurant but dishes were good. The noodle dishes have an interesting take on the broths. Had the pork chops but next time I think I'll do the oxtail noodle dish. Pate was also tasty. Parking available either in the metered stalls directly behind the restaurants or the lot next door (where Big City Diner and Happy Day are) is a paid lot that charges via a ticket so you don't have to feed the meters.
