    Pho and bun bo hue
    Angela Y.

    A friend that lives in Marrickville mentioned years ago that this was arguably the best pho place in Sydney. Marrickville? Really? No way! I recently got to try it out but under the new pretence that it actually wasn't as good as back in the day. Upon arrival we were shown to a table but then waited probably 5mins (although it felt more like 10) for someone to give us a menu. I was looking aimlessly around the restaurant for a ghetto sign board like in other vietnamese places but none were to be found as this is quite a classy establishment with wooden chairs and tables. The setting was all very nice but waiting for a menu when the restaurant was only 1/4 full was really weird. I was thinking am I just supposed to know what to order without seeing a menu? or do I need to ask for a menu? confused. Anyway we ordered a pho dac biet and bun bo hue to share. So we'll start with the pho. Really disappointing. The soup came out maybe just a big warmer than luke warm and it got cold really fast on a cold wet Sydney afternoon. The bun bo hue while hot was also really hot in the spicy sense. Now I can hold my spice but this definitely was reaching my limits so wasn't as enjoyable as it could've been if it were just a tad less spicy. So if you're someone that can't really handle your spice this is definitely not the dish to order. Well at least I'd satisfied my curiosity about this place. Won't be returning back though.

    I love cheap and cheerful places where you can get consistently good food, the service is fast and it doesn't break the bank. In Marrickville there's choices-a-plenty especially for Pho places. We've been trying out a few and today we decided to go to PHD on Illawarra road. At 3pm, there were still a fair few diners but we still got a table easily. Dr Skorpio had the Pho Dac Biet - I think this translates to "special" pho - sorry folks he is the pho connoisseur not me. I believe at most places this means you get a few different types of beef cuts in the soup. I tasted some of his soup and the broth was nice and flavoursome and came with a good amount of herbs on the side. One of the better versions outside Cabramatta. I on the other hand only eat Pho when I am hungover or sick or it is cold outside. So I opted for the crispy chicken with tomato rice. YUM! I got a chicken maryland that was mostly boneless. The chicken was lovely and crispy without being too dry. The rice also had some great flavours with a tiny hint of spice. I think the rice was stir fried with some onions and other ingredients which made it nice and fresh vs some other versions I've had where it looks like the rice was mixed with some red sauce. I would definitely come back (again and again) for that chicken dish.

    Key to a good pho? The broth...and I think this place nails it ! I ordered the combination rare beef pho and i love it. (a little stingy on the tribe though). Besides their famous pho, they have an extensive selection of other noodle/ rice dishes + appetizers. Service was really fast too. **cash only**

    Crab broth noodle. Super oily :(

    Great place with great vegetarian options, we can highly recommend the salt and pepper bean curd.

My friends rave of this place - to the point where the staff knows them by name and waits on them hand and foot kind of deal. But it's good, tonight I got to reap the benefits. One of my favorite things about Newtown is that many restaurants are BYO. Tonight we brought in a Rose bottle to have with our dinner, and it was delectable let me tell you that. On the vegan menu there are about 15 different options. My friends said I had to try the 'Momo,' which is a dumpling either panfried or poached. An order came with about 6 and it was so yummy. Next, I ordered the vegan chow mein. I've had sooo many vegan chow mein or veggie chow meins back home that literally make me want to barf. This was not the case at all. Huge serving, lots of veggies and moist. I added some chili oil and a lil salt and I was suddenly in food heaven or food coma, I cannot tell the difference. My friends shared about five different things including a dumpling miso soup. It looked rad and by their content faces, the flavor seemed to be a winner too. Another win on King Street, with an asian fusion menu and vegan options around, this place gets a lot of love in Newtown.

    Cool! A great…read morelittle restaurant on Darling Street in Balmain, amongst all the other great little restaurants. The place has good sushi, both dine in and take away. I often just get take away when I can't be bothered with dinner, and its usually not too much. The prices are competitive, but also not the cheapest. You can usually get 2 containers of sushi for less than $10, but that often doesn't do the job for me. But then again, I eat a lot. I would advise this place as some of the best sushi around the area, for taste and price. Definately check it out, but keep in mind - it's not a big classy restaurant, just a small, perhaps humble place in the shadow of the category of "classy restaurants", of which Sydney has many. The staff are friendly enough, and the place is comfortable to eat in. And get a froen coke at 7/11 accross the road. Nice.

Sushi before shopping and you will feel like you are in heaven; yet for me sushi just doesn't do it for me here in Rozelle. I mean there is nothing wrong with the establishment; with the quality of the sushi or the service; it is just that I have been conditioned to eat and enjoy sushi in the city or in the eastern suburbs of Sydney somewhere; not near my previous home area. You just have to really want it; no different to an overseas holiday. As I said I cannot fault the service, the sushi is terrific and full of authentic flavours with the freshest ingredients being used; and if your lucky you might get to see the staff roll the sushi by hand using those bamboo mats; it is kind of special. I will come to this establishment again and enjoy; yet 'sushi in the city' has just overpowered the enjoyment received from this establishment somewhat.

A healthy portion (which they embarrassingly deem as 'large') is around $12 which makes popping in here quickly quite the pricey excursion. There is a seating area to wait for your order but that confused me more as it was the carbon copy of my hairdresser's waiting area with low black stools and a range of magazines to browse. I was expecting to be ushered into a back room for a treatment at any moment. I decided to shock them slightly and eat in, so I sat at the long black table provided not sure whether to smile at my neighbours who were wolfing down their lunch or just bury myself in a magazine. I went for the latter, always safer.. My chicken noodles were nice but lacked any excitement. I kept hoping to come across a sauce or a rookie vegetable which might spice things up but it was really rather bland and with no soy sauce on hand, there was nothing I could do about it but to follow suit and wolf my portion down.

On the popular strip of Booth Street in Annandale it's a great place to grab a curry, some noodles or a stir fry and whilst there are plenty of options to choose from, I always seem to fall into the Pork Hokkien noodles. And it always satisfies! It's not an overly big place but there's generally plenty of space to grab a seat inside and watch the controlled mayhem that seems to be always going on in the busy kitchen. I like this place and to be more precise, The Pork Hokkien noodles!
