"Berlu’s pandemic pivot to a weekend Vietnamese takeout bakery was a success by most measures. Chef Vince Nguyen eventually started adding noodle soups to the menu, and now he’s reintroducing the upscale multi-course tasting menus the restaurant was originally known for — this time, incorporating Vietnamese ingredients, techniques, and dishes. The bakery remains open, and the tasting menu is available by reservation only via Tock. The bakery remains open on Sundays, for those craving springy, lime-green-colored bánh bò nướng." - Nick Woo, Krista Garcia
