Casual in the CBD(ish)

Have given this place a miss many times because it’s always only a quarter full. Being Singaporean, I rationalize that if there’s a queue, means it must be good, right? And the opposite applies. #fomonation

So anyway, no idea what possessed me to try this today but it was LEGIT GOOD. Let’s break it down into the individual components.

1. Grilled pork: Well seasoned, juicy and moist.
2. Radish/Carrots: Well-pickled for a touch of acidity.
3. Vegetables: Hallelujah they chop their lettuce up and boil their tau gey for carnivores like me.
4. Spring rolls: This was the only so-so part of the dish. But on the plus side they included yam as part of the filling which brought back memories of eating along the streets in HCM.

Lastly, parts 1 to 4 were topped off with some seriously crispy shallots and peanuts. 🤪

Yep, I’ll be back pho sho.

Lightly seasoned tuna belly chunks on rice seasoned with furikake, tobiko, and truffle oil. Other ingredients were japanese pickles, wakame (seaweed), and chuka kurage (seasoned jellyfish). The rice was so tasty, we finished every grain of it. All bowls served at this joint come with their truffle rice aside from the curry bowl. Price-wise, this was the highest-priced item on the menu and most bowls ranged from $9 to $15. The outlet has a small bar and some tables and chairs along the corridor for dine-in. 10/10 would return！
