Onto the dishes...I got there ~15minutes late, so Iman & Alexis had already ordered the summer rolls and lotus root salad appetizer not pictured below. The lotus root salad was mixed with a sour and sweet dressing, and came with awesome tasting shrimp crackers! I've forgotten what these dishes are called and I don't know how to type the names in English, so the descriptions would just have to do!
This was on the Specials board that night, flat rice flour wrapped with meat inside. I *think* the name is Bahn Cuon...it's a lot like 腸粉 at dimsum places. The slices on top are similar to luncheon meat, and fried onion bits. The ball on the plate has 2 shrimps wrapped around some stuffing-like dough that's been deep-fried. We ordered this dish from a Viet place in Flushing before, and they served the meat around the noodles, but it was actually better to eat it together like how they've arranged it at Nam Phuong. The meat+noodle wrap looks almost like spring rolls or crepes, but smaller in size. It definitely tasted better the the Flushing ones!
A vermicelli noodles dish at room temperature served with chicken, pork, and spring roll. It came with a small bowl of fish-sauce based sauce on the side which we poured on top. This was good as well!
Pork chop with broken rice. Even from the picture the pork chop looks juicy! I preferred the pork from this dish than the one in the vermicelli...this also came with the small bowl of sauce to pour over.
Based on last Saturday's experience, I would go back to Nam Phuong again...hopefully next time they'll have the Bahn Cuon too!
