Huong Viet

For Vietnamese dishes beyond pho and spring rolls, take a look at the courses at Huong Viet. Diners have reported finding home-style dishes that are less common at Vietnamese restaurants, including pickled unripe figs and stir-fried pumpkin stems. Part of the appeal is getting to try unfamiliar dishes a little at a time. Several visitors have mentioned enjoying a chef's-choice course in the evening, making it a good option if you'd rather see what arrives than decide between dishes yourself.

One dish that has made an impression is stir-fried glass noodles with crab. One diner said the noodles had taken on the crab's flavour, with savoury notes coming through in every bite. Several people have also recommended the lemongrass tofu, a dish to look out for if it appears in your course.

For an evening centred on a hot pot, there is also a medicinal beef version. Set meals include the day's side dish and a choice of dishes such as chicken or beef pho, stir-fried glass noodles with crab, and seafood fried rice.

There is terrace seating, and drinks include beer and wine. It may suit a group looking to share a meal and enjoy drinks alongside the food.
