CLOSED: Bo De Linh Son

This small place (seats 20) is located at the south-west end of the Inala Civic Centre - a type of outdoor mall which is behind the larger (and indoor) Inala Shopping Centre. Entry is easiest from middle of the Kittyhawk Ave car park.

Bo De Linh Son is run by a lovely old Buddhist nun. We ate lunch there and were surprised to find ourselves the sole patrons. The lunch menu is not overwhelming, but there was enough variety to let us try a good sample of Vietnamese food. Our very flavourful dishes were made with fresh ingredients in no time at all, and we got a lovely present of a large persimmon for dessert!

Do try this place next time you're in Inala. Vietnamese food is not to everyone's liking, but it's worth trying it at Bo De Linh Son, especially given that it's suitable for vegans!

(And while you're there, avail yourself of a range of hard-to-find super-fresh Asian greens, fresh cassava, and even fresh jackfruit available from the Asian greengrocers at Inala Civic Centre!)

This would have to be the best Vietnamese vegetarian place I have ever been to ^^

The dishes are very light & fresh ^^ The owner is very friendly & generous. She could speak a lot of languages and is always giving away free food to her loyal customers!!

Fridays & Saturdays is when they have their specials ^^

This is own and run by an old lady, she treats all her customers as her own family. Are very generous on food, sometimes even giveaway sweet soups to customers.

Love their Saturday special, wrapping your own Vietnamese rice paper rolls; the tomato noodle soup is also very tasty!
