PHO DISTRICT

Pho District is a solid choice if you're craving Vietnamese cuisine, and with hygiene as clean as a whistle, it’s a safe bet for your stomach. The bánh xèo pancake is a standout, and if you don’t order it, you’re doing it wrong. Hayley hit the nail on the head with that one. Xin Chen and the others were impressed with the service quality as well—nobody's getting left behind here, gluten allergies or not. It’s the kind of place where the food does most of the talking, and it’s all good things.

The atmosphere is lively, and the portions are generous, so you won't leave feeling like you just grazed on a salad. Just be wary of the occasional dish that doesn't quite hit the mark, like Pamellia's fried rice—definitely one to skip. Stick with the winners, and you'll be dining on a high.
