• A wonderful surprise

I was thrilled to find a new delicious vegan Vietnamese restaurant to take the place of Lotus Garden Restaurant which closed down in 2006 (I think). The flavours are quite different from the Chinese-Buddhist cooking the style is closest to. I had an eggy pancake appetizer that was fabulous and a congee that was aromatic and soothing. Definitely comfort food. My girlfriend was overjoyed to find pho soup after years without it, too. Cons? They had a bunch of fish in a small tank in the entranceway, and though I was bothered by their harsh confinement when I walked in, I didn't say anything at the time. The restaurant is in an old, dingy building and the atmosphere suffers for it. The family staff was friendly and really made up for this, though! Will definitely go back.
