"Bringing 30 years' experience to the table, the Malaysian-born chef has worked in six major cities across Asia. The interior is done out in traditional Chinese décor featuring modern paintings and flowers. The menu combines classical Cantonese with contemporary elements and a twist of southern Asian in a creative presentation. Be sure to try the há cảo thủy tinh (crystal shrimp dumpling) and the xá xíu ướp thao được quay kieu 'truyền thống' (traditional roasted pork belly with herbs)." - Michelin Inspector

It's Pho restaurant. I think they open in the morning only. So I didn't have chance to come a while, but finally I could. So the quality of the Pho is not different from the one selected by Michellin I think. I already tried all Michellin selected Pho in HCMC. The Pho here was really good. It's HCMC style Pho, then the price is much cheaper than the Michellin one. So if you just want to have a good Pho, this is the one.

One of my favourites when it comes to the combination of tastes and value. The pho is spot on and the portions are a great size. Would definitely come back. It is located in the alleyway, so enter through the alley or second street past the main street.

Pretty decent pho 45k for a bowl. It has a good amount of meat in it. This store seems to be very popular among locals as the tables were almost full.

- The stall's name is Lai, named after the owner of the stall. - The pho bowl is priced at 50,000 VND, which is quite reasonable given the generous portion of food served. The broth is said to be sweet due to being stewed with beef bones since the previous evening. - One unique feature of this stall is that the owner remembers the dishes that customers have ordered before. As a result, he can quickly confirm the order upon arrival, which leads to shorter wait times for food. In summary, the breakfast pho stall named Lai, owned by a man named Lai, offers reasonably priced pho with a sweet broth due to being stewed with beef bones overnight. The owner's ability to remember customer orders leads to faster service, which is a plus for those who are in a hurry.

Ordered Phở Gân which is tendon Pho. The noodles were soggy and the tendons were very hard. It's rare to find soft tendons in Vietnam but these were hardly chewable. Broth is not bad and the price is fair.

I enjoyed this đầy đủ bowl of pho very much. The cashier and server were very pleasant. Sitting in an alley was fun, too!
