Shibuya, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo. A Vietnamese and Thai delicatessen and pho specialty store located on the 2nd basement floor of Shibuya Scramble Square. Operated by "cycle & design Co., Ltd." which deals with ethnic delicacies from Thailand and Vietnam. Other stores like "Good Morning Bangkok," "Good Morning Hanoi," and "COCO CHILI" are also present. The nearest station is the recently transformed Shibuya Station, a bustling hub. Healthy and simple Vietnamese pho is the best! On weekends, while wandering around Shibuya Scramble Square, I stumbled upon this eatery where I could dine in. I decided to try their pho, thinking it would be light. There were two staff members. They offer Vietnamese pho for takeout, ethnic burritos, and Vietnamese & Thai cuisine in one corner, while there is a dining area in the back. Orders are placed by checking off items on a paper using a red pen. Cashless payment is available, with payment made afterwards. By the way, they have stopped serving banh mi (Vietnamese-style sandwich) since the opening and have started offering ethnic burritos from March 1st. Today's order: Grilled Chicken Standard Pho for 680 yen. Starting with the basic chicken pho, you can choose from pho (flat, chewy noodles), senyai (extra thick flat noodles), or bun (slippery thin round noodles). I opted for the basic pho. Squeezing lime juice over the top, with cilantro, watercress, bean sprouts, and a few grilled chicken pieces, the chewy pho, and the light chicken broth were delicious. The default is always kept simple. It is common to use table condiments. Adjust the taste to your liking by adding chili sauce with garlic, chili sauce with acidity, the classic spicy condiment sriracha, fish sauce (nam pla), Thai chili powder (prik pong), and an original spicy condiment with garlic, ginger, lemongrass, etc. It was so delicious. I love ramen, but I also enjoy the healthy and gentle Vietnamese pho.
