Saigon Bistro - Decent High End Vietnamese Food

Closed

Formerly known as NUOC at Orchard Central, this restaurant had moved to The Elizabeth Hotel where we are spared of the extremely winding journey to the OC carpark. The setting is decent with view of the pool and lush man made landscape on the other side, contemporary Southeast Asia decor. The service is decent and good, with lots of smiles and thoughtful gestures from the proactive service staffs.

The food is good and decent, bursting with strong flavours that work well together and will simulate or wake up your senses. The fried spring roll, seafood steamboat (clear soup base is the better choice, avoid the spicy which is too sweet) are highly recommended, so are the set lunches which are extremely value for money. Another highlight of the dishes is the Garoupa Soup which is absolutely beautiful in taste, aroma of the fresh fish paired with broth that is soaked with the harmony of savoury, spicy and tangy flavours—absolute comfort food.

Always back for more if I want to eat Vietnamese food.

My Thoughts: Pretty Good
