Pho Hong

Pho Hong

February 24, 2013


I first visited Pho Hong a few years back, and always remembered this restaurant as the spring rolls pho joint because they had really good spring rolls and adding an order of spring rolls to a large pho is like the thing to do here.

Le Saigonnaise Vietnamese Restaurant was a great find in New Westminster.

I came here originally wanting some pho, but decided to get some of the unusual vietnamese appetizers instead. So, for dinner we shared a Saigon style chicken wings, Vietnamese pancake, and a spicy pho (Bún bò Huế).

Pho Hoang on Main is my friends’ go to place for pho. We ended up having dinner here because our plan to dine at Phnom Penh failed.

We arrived in Vegas at about 11PM, and my parents wanted to treat my uncle and aunt to some food for picking us up from the airport. We had to go off the strip to pick up a car for us to use, so we also stopped by Pho Kim Long for a late night meal. Sadly I just missed EDC, but I still saw a bunch of cars with EDC painted and written all over them. This place is open 24 hours a day in their little Chinatown/Asian section of the city.

I never heard of DD Mau until a couple weeks ago until Dee & my friends kept going on and on about DD Mau on our walk to Minami for dinner. I thought it was some kind of inside joke because DD Mau sounds kind of funny when it’s said repeatedly, but it turned out to be a real vietnamese sandwich shop in Yaletown. A few days later, I was back here to grab a quick bite with my friends.

If it wasn’t for my friend, I probably wouldn’t eat at Pho Chung Nam in New Westminster. To be honest, this place looks a little ghetto from the outside.

My coworker introduced me to Tung Hing a while ago when she was craving Banh Mi. Lucky for me she went during lunch, and grabbed some Vietnamese sandwiches and gave one to me. She’s raved about this place before, and is her favourite.

Pho Century Fine Vietnamese

Cold rainy weathers always calls for pho, so I had one of those late afternoon lunches at Pho Century on Kingsway.

This pho restaurant seemed really new, they probably just opened within a few months. And unlike the ‘regular’ pho joints, this place’s decoration is considered a bit on the fancy side.

The cool guys at VANEATS is offering another awesome Dining Pass, and we were able to get a taste of Kindle with Kin at Kin Reso Bar on Robson.

Pho Hoa, Kingsway

Pho Hoa, Kingsway

December 19, 2011


Pho Hoa is a Vietnamese restaurant that I typically stay away from. It’s a franchise with tons of locations around North America. I’ve even seen one in LA, and I’m pretty sure there are lots of other locations. Anyways, their Pho isn’t nearly the best. The only thing they have going for them is that they are open late. I haven’t been to a Pho Hoa for a good couple of years now.

VIetnam II

VIetnam II

August 23, 2011


We were attracted to this place because we saw a big sign saying Pho Tau Bay, which is our favourite Vietnamese restaurant in Surrey. We found out later that the place was actually called Vietnam II. Our server was an older lady, and seemed to be in a really bad mood at first. Looked really grumpy, and when we tried ordering with the numbers, she angrily insisted that we read out the name instead. What’s the point of the numbers?

Slanted Door is a Vietnamese restaurant located in the financial district of San Francisco. Knowing it’s Vietnamese, I was expecting a small restaurant. But once we got there, this was like a 1200 sqf. restaurant and it was packed with people.
