I waited over 15 minutes for my food which was very disappointing. I ordered the classic prawn roll with peanut sauce. The actual roll was filling and you could taste that the ingredients were fresh. I’m hoping to try more of their stuff with hopefully quicker service.
Wanted to try a healthier option at the Food Market and so stumbled across this place. The rolls themselves were disappointing – they were bland/ lacked flavour and fall apart easily. The staff also only wear one glove when putting the dishes together which is off-putting. Wouldn’t recommend this place.
Fresh, healthy, tasty springrolls: what more do you need?Its not hard to understand why this place is doing so well, they stick to one core product and they deliver on their promise. Hard to find a better proposition for a light and tastefully healthy bite at the V&A Foodmarket.
The layout of this place is very appealing which is what drew me to it. I’m not always the most adventurous of eaters so I ordered the prawn rolls minus the mango. To my disappointment the rolls were tasteless and the only thing that helped make them edible and somewhat tasty was the spicy dipping sauce that I was given with my meal.
I went to the Market on the Wharf looking for something new and decided on LUA. I always walk past the rice paper rolls cause I’m on the look out for something more substantial. I really like their set up – it’s simple and clean. Their menu is very limited, there are a few rice paper rolls and a few noodle salads all of which look good. We had the prawn and mango as well as the chicken. We were given dipping sauces as well. The rolls were very dry and tasteless and the sauces weren’t very nice. The one sauce was just plain fish sauce. We asked for soy sauce instead but they didn’t have any. The rolls were made very haphazardly and fell to pieces at the first bite and ended up being a very big mess. I’m still disappointed. I don’t think I’ll be heading back any time soon.
