The meeting of Chaozhou and Khmer cultures gave rise to Hủ tiếu hồng phát noodles. The chả giò tôm cua (shrimp and crab spring rolls) and sủi cảo chiên (fried shrimp and pork dumplings) are great appetisers.

Since the 1990s, this unassuming stall has been serving what many locals consider to be the best cơm tấm (broken rice dish) in town. Their most popular version is steamed broken rice topped with pork chop marinated in a secret sauce and perfectly grilled over charcoal, along with pickled radish and sweet and sour fish sauce.

The star of the show is bún riêu: rice noodles (thin, thick or flat) in a tomato and crab broth.

The small dining rooms are thoughtfully and attractively furnished and one boasts a colourful fresco.

Vị Quê Kitchen champions a modern Vietnamese vegan repertoire, weaving together flavours from across the country with thoughtful, creative twists, using fruit and vegetables largely grown in the family’s own garden. Nem vuông, a Hai Phong speciality of deep-fried rice paper parcels, is reworked here with assorted mushrooms and glass noodles, offering pleasing layers of texture. Bún Vì Quê, a noodle soup topped with herbs and tofu puffs, is underpinned by a punchy, flavour-packed broth. A cosy atmosphere, complemented by well-chosen music, adds to the appeal.
