"This easygoing Vietnamese newcomer to Harvey Park is a blast. From fusion-inspired creations like pho tacos and egg-topped brisket fries to more traditional treats — don’t miss the rice paper salad called bánh tráng trộn or the grilled whole squid with chili oil — the food’s a whole lot of fun to play with, and so is the booze that accompanies it: Bottles of banana-flavored makgeolli, dragon fruit-soju mojitos, and even pho-infused vodka shots turn a meal here into a party. (Nonalcoholic concoctions involving salted plum or pandan leaf ensure teetotalers aren’t left out of the merriment.) Reservations are available online." - Ruth Tobias
