Although one would usually think of chains like Mrs Pho or So Pho when you think of Vietnamese food, ๐™‡๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™‹๐™๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™‘๐™ž๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ข๐™š๐™จ๐™š ๐˜พ๐™ช๐™ž๐™จ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™š is a hidden gem that the real Vietnamese in Singapore go to.

I feel that you can judge a good Vietnamese eatery based on the quality of their pho, so I ordered a bowl of ๐™Ž๐™ฅ๐™š๐™˜๐™ž๐™–๐™ก ๐˜ฝ๐™š๐™š๐™› ๐˜พ๐™ค๐™ข๐™—๐™ค ๐™‹๐™๐™ค (PhแปŸ Dแบทc Biแป‡t, $8.90) to see for myself. The Special Beef Combo is like a zhnged-up version of your usual beef pho, with slices of beef, beef brisket and a raw egg that you can whisk in and cook in your piping hot soup.

Another item on Long Phungโ€™s menu was the ๐™Ž๐™ฅ๐™ž๐™˜๐™ฎ ๐˜ฝ๐™š๐™š๐™› ๐™‰๐™ค๐™ค๐™™๐™ก๐™š๐™จ (Hแปง Tiแบฟu Bรฒ Kho, $7.90), which caught my eye because itโ€™s something quite special that you donโ€™t usually find in other Vietnamese restaurants (at least, not in Singapore). The spicy beef stew is richly flavoured, and I could taste hints of spices like star anise. The beef was incredibly delicious, generous and fall-apart tender.

Of course, whatโ€™s a meal at a Vietnamese restaurant without Vietnamese Coffee? I ordered a hot and iced ๐™‘๐™ž๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ข๐™š๐™จ๐™š ๐˜พ๐™ค๐™›๐™›๐™š๐™š (Cร  Phรช Phin Sแปฏa Dรก/Dรณng, $4), both of which were rich and chocolatey, a perfect blend of aromatic Robusta coffee and creamy sweetened condensed milk. I especially love how they serve the hot coffee with the drip, just like in Vietnam.

I made a video on the ๐˜ฝ๐™š๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™‘๐™ž๐™š๐™ฉ๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ข๐™š๐™จ๐™š ๐™๐™ค๐™ค๐™™ ๐™ž๐™ฃ ๐™Ž๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ๐™–๐™ฅ๐™ค๐™ง๐™š, featuring Long Phung versus Mrs Pho.

Though the beef is a bit tough and dry, the whole dish is still deliciously refreshing, especially in Singaporeโ€™s hot weather.

A bonus to eating at Chowon Garden is the feast of banchan they serveโ€”5 small plates of side dishes with every meal, just like in Korea! The side dishes rotate on a daily basis, so you may try different dishes on different days. Iโ€™ve tried the Seasoned Seaweed, Kimchi, Seasoned Beansprouts, Stir-Fried Fishcake, Vegetable Noodle Salad, Spicy Braised Tofu... But my fave has got to be the Soy Braised Potatoes, which is soft, sweet and caramelised.
