No group behind it, no second branch — one kitchen, one dining room, and a menu that has grown slowly because every dish had to earn its place.What we cook is home food rather than restaurant food: the clear, long-simmered broths of Hà Nội, the chilli and lemongrass heat of Huế, the herbs and fresh rice paper of the Mekong Delta, and the grilled, peanut-strewn plates you would eat on a Sài Gòn street.Nearly everything comes together to order — the stocks each morning, the sauces by hand, the herbs cut when the plate goes out. It is why some dishes take a few minutes longer than you might expect, and why we would rather they did.Est.2002 — 24 years in IslingtonRun byOne family, still cookingCooking fromMekong Delta · Huế · Sài Gòn · Hà NộiMore about usA few favouritesWhere most people startSee the full menuThe one to start withPhở£11.50Vietnam's national dish — flat rice noodles in a light, fragrant soup.Spicy(V)Vegetarian(GF)Gluten freeStraight off the grillBún thịt nướng£13.50Sizzling platter of marinated char-grilled pork in herbs & spices.(GF)Gluten freeRolled to order
