Long Phung

I'm a human being and I fall in love and sometimes I don't have control of every situation. - Beyonce Knowles

Another hidden gem in East Side, despite the location in Joo Chiat area, fame for cultural area by day and red light district during night, this area also well known for its hourly transit hotel rent. But apart from all that I also could say that this area can be called 'Mini Vietnam'. The  whole strecth is filled with Vietnamese dodgy bars and its restaurants. But theres only one restaurant that is pack every single day, Vietnamese Cuisine is similiar like Thai Cuisine, Vietnamese Cuisine utilize a diverse range of herbs, including lemongrass, mint, coriander and Thai basil leaves. Traditional Vietnamese cooking is greatly admired for freshness of the ingredients and for the healthy eating style.

Long Phung located at 159 Joo Chiat Road, Singapore

I should warn that they have a pretty long queue and its's not really organised, theres no hostess or server that can guide you to dine in, however they will shout out the persons they need to fill in the empty table once the turn over is ready, hence always be in guard and maintain eye contact and quickly raise your hand if the number of persons suits their announcement. The restaurant is fairly small, they provide big tables more than small tables, can be seated 6 persons per table, so overall this restaurant can covers around 72 persons.

Apart from the seedy crowd and dodgy surroundings, almost the patrons are Vietnamese so I can assume the foods surely pass their tongue approval. The price ranges are afforable. The food varies are wide, you can basically found any typical Vietnames dishes in here. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for an authectic Vietnamese Cuisine. Dont forget to be aggresively pro-active while you queuing :)
