Table for 3, only snag you have to all be present before they will sit you at a table, as this is a popular restaurant, and won't take reservations, first come first serve basis. Even though they only open at 18:30 for dinner, the harbour view tables were already filled on our arrival at 18:40. 


The menu was interestingly laid out, more like a magazine brouchure, which was great as it really highlighted what looked appetising on the photos and had many such display which aided our selection. We ordered some 8 dishes +  3 special drink between us.

Spring roll - light, proper rice pastry served with lettuce, basil and mint.
Raw beef pho - soup base good, noodles were the dried resoaked ones, but texture nice
Pancake with prawn and chicken - pastry light, not enough egg, beansprout ok
Grilled Stuffed cuttlefish - interesting, v filling, worth a try
Fried soft shell Crab summer roll - looked nice, tasted a bit bland, a tad crispy
Beef Curry - yummy! v flavoursome

Garlic bread - halved baguette
Grilled fish - with lemon grass - came last, but well worth the wait, succulent and tasty

The only negative thing was when we spilt the pineapple crush drink accidentally when it was nearly full, they rushed to clear the mess but did not replace the drink free, which would have been a wonderful gesture and expected really in such a restaurant.

All in all $800 for 3, couldn't fit in dessert.
