Noodlepie‘s is a beautiful blog (just check out the detail in “The Vietnamese pate mystery“), but it’s Saigonese (and its author seems to live now in Toulouse which is going to make it hard for him). My interests lie more with Hanoi. Sticky Rice covers the food of Hanoi excellently, and in trying to find anything of interest about the Footscray Vietnamese Market in English on the web just now, I came across evidence that Mr or Mrs Rice came to Melbourne in May. The Ricester sampled our pho and declared it to be Saigonese in style and damned good too. It’s his photo — yes, I’m lazy.
Have you tried the new PHO restaurant 'Love Pho' on Swan St?
I love Pho !
Mekong on Swanston is one of my all time faves.
Hi Lisa
I think you’re getting confused with the new one on Swan St, not Swanston. Mekong is pretty ordinary. Try it and see what I mean.
