I had chicken pho set at LONG DINH in Osaka, Shinsaibashi. Chicken pho is a Vietnamese dish called pho ga in Vietnamese. It had been a while since I last visited, and this time the prices were a bit higher, but for some reason, the portion size was also increased haha. What made me happy was when the chef, Ho Thi Tui, came out of the kitchen just to greet me with a "long time no see." I remember when I ordered Bun Cha before, and he was so delighted, saying, "Do you know this dish?" It was always a friendly atmosphere, and the food was super delicious! 1,175 yen (March 20, 2023).

There are trendy and cafe-style Vietnamese restaurants as well as more authentic ones. I wanted to try authentic Vietnamese cuisine, so I visited this place. Although it is not listed on Tabelog, it was open for business as of late July. I arrived around 11:30 am on a weekday. There were two Vietnamese men enjoying beer as the first customers. The lunch menu was a good deal, but I focused on the grand menu. I was undecided between goat and frog, but I chose goat today. There were various goat dishes on the menu, each with a different Vietnamese name. This time, I ordered the Lemongrass Stir-Fried Goat for 980 yen (excluding tax) and the Mix Banh Mi (probably Mix Banh Mi) for 590 yen. First, the Banh Mi arrived. It was huge! It might be the largest Banh Mi I've ever had. I thought about taking half of it home because if I ate it all, I wouldn't be able to eat the goat. It contained Vietnamese ham, slices of fried chicken-like meat, various other meats, fresh vegetables, classic pickles, and more. The bread was crispy and delicious. When I was about two-thirds done with the Banh Mi, the goat arrived. The coconut milk-flavored yellow curry-like seasoning was quite to my liking. The goat meat was firm and had a good chew to it, but there was no gamey taste at all. Thanks to the sauce, it was easier to eat than mutton. The vegetables were plentiful and crunchy, like in Chinese stir-fry dishes. The refreshing flavor of lemongrass was also present, and I finished it all in no time. I thought it would go well with rice, but I also finished the remaining Banh Mi. I was full, but since there were so many vegetables, I didn't feel heavy. Next time, I might try frog with rice.

When I visited the restaurant during lunchtime, I found that both the staff and customers were Vietnamese, and I couldn't hear any Japanese being spoken. I sat down, but nobody came to take my order, so I started to feel anxious because I was short on time. They only had a dinner menu, so I asked for the lunch menu and ordered the Hue-style beef noodle soup. It was spicier than pho and had a strong fish sauce aroma, so it's recommended for those who enjoy spicy flavors. The soup, infused with fish sauce, had a unique taste similar to taro. There was plenty of beef in it, making it satisfying to eat, and overall it was an interesting place where you could experience the local atmosphere.

I visited with my Vietnamese friend. The customers were mostly Vietnamese and all the staff were Vietnamese as well. The interior also had a Vietnamese feel. Even in Japan, you can experience authentic Vietnamese cuisine and atmosphere. The drinks and menu are also extensive, so I recommend sharing with multiple people.

When walking south from Ame-mura towards Nishi-Shinsaibashi, I came across a restaurant that I thought was Thai cuisine but turned out to be a Vietnamese restaurant. I was surprised and decided to go in. The staff, who looked Vietnamese, led me to a table and I struggled to choose from the dinner menu as there was no lunch menu. I decided to go with my favorite dish, Bun Bo Hue, as ordering individual dishes seemed expensive. The dish looked like the photo with beef on top. It reminded me of Nagasaki Champon with its noodles. The portion was surprisingly large, but the taste was plain so I stopped eating halfway through. The soup was not bad, but not particularly tasty either. Overall, the Bun Bo Hue left me with a mediocre impression. Perhaps other dishes like stir-fries might be better, but the noodles didn't suit my taste.
