"Vietnamese Foodies brings the tastes of Ho Chi Minh City to Dubai’s gastronomy scene. Its pho, simmered for 14 hours, is the star dish of the menu, but other favorites include the bun bo hue (beef and lemongrass soup), hoanh thanh chien gion (crispy prawn dumplings), and goi cuon (spring rolls), including a vegan variation with sweet potato, eggplant, and zucchini. The rest of the stellar menu is packed with aromatic Thai basil, scallion, annatto, and other flavors of Southeast Asia. [$$$]" - Rahma Khan
