Vietnamese food is growing in popularity in Singapore and no doubt, I do have some difficulties trying to get my hands on good Vietnamese food in Singapore. I have eaten authentic Vietnamese cuisine in Canada made by my Vietnamese family friend when I was still living there and the ones she makes are the best!
But finally, in Singapore, I managed to find a restaurant that can rival what I had in Canada many years ago. Located at the top floor of Suntec City, right across Toys ‘R’ Us is the Vietnamese Restaurant Pho House.
I usually drop by there for dinner and it is always packed! There are so many customers and the environment of the restaurant is very cosy. However, the waiting staff can get a little annoying and hostile but the food totally makes up for it!

They serve set meals at only $13 ++ that comes with a Appetizer of either a Salad Roll or Egg roll, top up $2 and you get their Lemon Grass Chicken Wing. Main Course of your choice and a drink, either Ice Tea or Vietnamese Coffee.
Both polar and I each took the set meal , I had Pho Bo which is the Vietnamese noodle beef soup with a Salad Roll and a Ice Lemon Tea.

The Pho Bo was really good and the main course comes with Mint leaves and raw Bean sprouts served on the side. I put in the mint leaves so as to add a little more minty flavour which I love. The soup is very hearty and it is a good balance of sweet and salty.
The salad roll was a little frozen but after letting it defrost for a while, it was crunchy and tasty! The prawns were really fresh, so was the vegetables. But if you don’t like the taste of mint leaves, don’t add it in.
Polar had Vietnamese Beef Stew with Lemon Grass Chicken Wing and Vietnamese Coffee.

And this is what Polar has to say about the food:
"Koala's been bugging me to comment on my food rather then keep eating. So here it goes. (: I’m not a big fan of mint leaves but I love and adore beef! So i've decided to give the vietnamese beef stew a try.
The set came with a Vietnamese drip coffee and it was served before the meal though I should have chosen after the meal. I was amused by how the coffee cup looked liked and fiddled with it before I took a whiff and then a sip at the coffee. My eyes lit up instantly from the kick of the fragrant aroma of grinded coffee beans! This is good stuff and it gave a strangely nostalgic feeling. (:
The beef stew looks extra appetizing with all that sliced carrot floating on top of the soup. Lovely colour! The soup has a sweet carroty essense to it and the beef were very tender. It's fairly a big bowl of soup with a generous portion of beef."
Overall, this place is a die die must try! Totally love it! I will dine there every once a month because I totally love the food! For the set meal, it is definitely worth the money!
