Viet Hoa..

well, well.. it was meant to be Shabu Shabu night.. My new Guest Judge, Young Coconut, picked me up at 6.15pm.. 15mins earlier than the scheduled time.. luckily i was ready, if not, i'll be in a frenzy..

then we went to pick Strawberry Shortcake up at about 6.45pm.. we called her twice when we were waiting for her but she didnt answer.. hence we decided to text her.. after waiting for about 30mins.. i asked Young Coconut if he did tell Strawberry Shortcake that he will be picking her up at 6.45pm.. he said no.. he looked at me and asked me if i've called her.. i said no.. and Young Coconut practically jumped in his seat! there was only an "OH NO~" in my head.. wahaha.. we called Strawberry Shortcake for the last time and she didnt answer still.. Young Coconut and me ended up in Viet Hao..
- Cha Gio (fried spring roll)

- Goi Cuon (Vietnamese rice paper roll with Pork and Prawn)

- Front: Che Hot Sen (Lotus Seeds)
- Back: Dau Do Banh Lot (Ice Chendol)

- Mi Vit Tiem (braised duck rice noodles - dry)

My Guest Judge - Young Coconut.. with his:
- Mi Cari Ga (curry chicken and egg noodles - soup)
- Nuoc Dua Tuoi (Young Coconut)

this Guest Judge is really tough when it comes to judging food.. he failed his Mi Cari Ga, his Che Hot Sen, my Dau Do Banh Lot and the entree, Goi Cuon.. he barely pass the other entree, the Cha Gio and my Mi Vit Tiem.. the one only thing he praised was his Nuoc Dua Tuoi, hence his nickname on this blog~ oh ya, that thing he's holding in the above photo is not the egg noodles, it's a bean sprout! i guess it's been mutated~

as for me, i still prefer the Mi Vit Tiem at Tra Vinh! the Goi Cuon was on par with Tra Vinh's.. their Dau Do Banh Lot was better than Sparrow's.. and the rest were okie to eat, though nothing impressive..

the Ambiance of the restaurant.. pretty good.. pretty big as it's the corner lot.. the Service wasnt very friendly.. not a surprise, huh~ Prices were alright.. normal range.. and on the Overall, i would cross the road to Sparrow~ hehez..

Thanks for the treat, Young Coconut! haha!
