One of those Vietnamese restaurant which offers a mix of everything from the traditional soup broth dishes of Pho, Bun Rien, Hu Tieu to a mix variety of rice & noodle dishes. I dont mind these restaurants, particularly where youre not certain of what you want to eat and when youre dining with a mix of people who may have different taste buds. However, on most occasions for Vietnamese restaurants I often find that dining at a place that is well known for a speciality that theyre good at, you cant often go wrong. I took a guess on this occasion and opted for the dried noodle dish Hu Tieu Kho while my friend had the Bun Bo Hue which she said they do quite well there. We had it takeway. In all fairness, my dish wasnt bad for $10, lots of noodles though with little meat or side soup. But it was good, in comparison to other places Ive eaten and something this simple I find it cant be hard to get right.
I have recently gone to Song Huong for dinner. Last night, the staff at the counter just absolutely terrified me. I wanted to order a sugar cane drink for take away, while staff was washing cups at the sink. Staff did not take off the washing gloves and started to pick the ice putting into the takeaway cup. :(( and staff did the rest with the washing gloves...and so on. I suggested that staff should have taken off the washing gloves. Staff did not care at all and started to yell at me.
The food was great but hygiene was completely terrible. Don't pay your money to get bugs and germs especially from the drinks.
