They have a selection of tasting menus ranging from $58 to $78, but these are for two people minimum so I ordered a few snacks instead. First of these was from the Wrap and Roll section Antarctic King Crab spring roll. This was wrapped in lattice rice paper and came with a little bowl of chilli and ginger dipping sauce and some lettuce leaves. Crunchy and tasty. Next up were three Tiger prawns coated in green rice and deep fried, also served with lettuce leaves to wrap them in and Nuoc Cham for dipping. Also very nice. I 'd saved the best until last as it turned out; Peking duck broth with bean sprouts and Vietnamese mint. The soup was loaded with succulent strips of meat and lots of sliced onion. Really, really good, but I 'd have to say the pork, prawn and egg noodle soup I had at Hanoi Hannah last time I was there probably just edged this one out. This is the most expensive Vietnamese restaurant I 've been to, but it 's very good. Service is fast and friendly and it has a modern, trendy ambience which I quite like.
