The noodles are made using rice vermicelli, which is used to make noodle soup or tossed with deep-fried shredded eel, herbs, toasted peanuts, and shallots. Shredded pork sausage and shiitake mushrooms are added to the soup and congee to enhance the umami flavor.

The specialty here is the snails, which are cooked in a variety of ways and sauces. The stir-fried white clams in garlic butter have a strong aroma, while the stir-fried cockles with tamarind exude an irresistible umami flavor.

The shop, which lacks any signage, boasts a single distinctive feature: phở bò, to the exclusion of anything else on the menu. And why shouldn’t it, when the minced beef noodles here are so good? Served in an intense beef bone stock, cooked for 10 hours, it comes with a tender beef flank and tendon.


4. Phở 10 Lý Quốc Sư (Hoan Kiem)

The kitchen, which is visible through a glazed partition, is operated by a competent team. The phở itself is hearty and incredibly refreshing, with tender pieces of beef that melt in the mouth.
