Nam
what the critics say
Charmaine Mok - 2/5
Sunday, October 18, 2009 - All the pho dishes cost 4.90, though the serving is smaller than most. The light, beefy broth was agreeable and had a certain level of depth, while the raw beef slices were tender. However, the rice noodles had a strange grainy texture instead of the silkiness of proper banh pho, and the serving of beansprouts and herbs was miniscule - a tiny sprig of holy basil and less than a handful of beansprouts were offered between two of us. For a quick pho fix, Nam isn't a bad choice; however, the meek flavours and small servings are in contrast to the fresh tastes and hearty nature of Vietnamese cuisine.

new small viet cafe on dean st next to the hair salon. popped in after work for a quick bowl of pho cos i still get cravings for the food back home!! i was a bit disappointed with the skimpy noodles and bean sprouts in the bowl but the broth was quite good and had nice flavour. they have sauces on the table so you can make your pho the way you like it but i would have liked some fresh chilli more than sauce cos it gives a better heat. i only had pho but they also had spring rolls etc so maybe i will go back and try them. i give the pho 6/10.
