"1618 Asian Fusion on East Riverside wears a lot of hats. Dim sum brunch? Check. Pho, pad thai, and Peking duck? You might think that a place casting such a wide net might stretch itself a little thin, but despite the broad menu, there are a few things 1618 does especially well, including Vietnamese noodle soups like pho and hủ tiếu. 1618’s hủ tiếu is a little on the sweet end, but in a way that helps to highlight some of those deep, savory flavors in the pork broth. It’s not a dish that a ton of restaurants in Austin offer, either. But sometimes when you cast a wide enough net, you end up catching some great stuff.
