Two refreshing options for your choice of beverage would be the lemon cooler and passion fruit mojito. Both drinks have basil added to introduce a slight minty aroma without being overpowering.

A crispy rice cracker with a meat dip sounds like something that never goes wrong and Pho Street delivered on point. The minced meat dip is flavored with five spices which gives it a touch of fragrance. The chunks of minced meat creates a more textured bite which was a nice contrast to the crispy cracker!

The Bun Cha is served with a basket of ingredients with a bowl of specially concocted fish sauce. The basket is filled with thick rice vermicelli, pork patties, bean sprouts, cucumber and mint leaves. Pick up a bit of everything and dip it in the sauce before slurping it up, just like Japanese tsukemen! The crunchy vegetables provided a refreshing bite to it while the sauce added a sweet and tangy kick. The sauce is made with pork belly, pickled carrots and pickled papaya to enhance its flavor. With such strong ingredients coming together, the taste was surprisingly rather light-tasting. Personally, I could do with a more bold tasting dip.
