Not sure what happened to this place because it was amazing when it first opened, I was so happy that there was finally a restaurant in HK that delivered the authentic flavours just like I’ve had many times in Vietnam, instead of catering to the locals’ tastes and preferences.The banh canh cua is nothing like what I’ve had in Vietnam.

The banh canh cua is nothing like what I’ve had in Vietnam. The fried bread rolls (banh quay) are supposed to be served on the side, instead they dumped it straight into the noodles resulting in this soggy mess. The soup lacked depth and umami from the crab and shrimp which were supposed to be the backbone of the broth. The toppings were forgettable at best, failing to distract from the soggy bread sitting in my soup.
In my opinion paying over a hundred bucks for a mediocre bowl of noodles is insane. But even so I was willing to do it if it provided some sort of semblance to the real thing. Alas, I will have to go back to Vietnam for it.
The banh mi is really just ok, again a significant downgrade to what I had when they first opened. It was suffering from a poor amount of pâté, as well as lacking a generous kick of spice which is usually present in southern style banh mi. The egg coffee was straight up trash, never mind the flavour but the fact that they had put spoonfuls of cocoa powder on top made it clump so badly and pretty much undrinkable given that I was stirring it
for the entirety of the meal. It’s supposed to be a *light* dusting of cocoa powder…
Oh and they need to seat people faster during high traffic hours. The level of service I’ve experienced is not good enough.
