Id walked past Mums Table a few times so I decided Id drop in for a quick meal before heading out to the airport. The restaurant was really quiet when I walked in which wasnt a very positive signal. Mum herself was at the counter and strongly recommended the pho, noting it came with two free spring rolls. I wasnt exactly enthused about the idea of the two free spring rolls as a restaurant that serves a great bowl of pho doesnt need to offer free spring rolls but as I was always going to order the pho, I went with here recommendation and ordered the pho dac biet. The restaurant looks great on the inside, having been furnished with some care. It took about 10-15 minutes for my bowl of pho to arrive. My first impressions were that it wasnt a particularly generous serving. The serving of bean sprouts and Vietnamese mint was also very restrained. I ate the spring rolls first which were pretty uninspiring. The stock of the pho was actually pretty good. The serving of meat (brisket and meatballs) in the pho were generous but it had no tripe and no tendon. How can you have a pho dac biet without those ingredients in it?! Ive rated the pho dac biet a 3 overall. The stock was probably pushing a 4 but a combination of the small serving, lack of variety in ingredients and a premium price of $16 pulled it down to a 2.5 to me. Ive rounded up to a 3 overall to be kind. The spring rolls were a 1.5 but they dont count, being free. Mum, if youre reading this, can I suggest you increase your serving sizes. You servings of meat are adequate but you need to increase the serving of the cheapest ingredient – the noodles! If you want to charge a premium price, you need to serve a premium bowl of pho.
