VIET STREET

You'll find yourself on Sandgate Road heading towards the seafront when you spot the queue outside Viet Street—and there's always a queue, which tells you everything. It's the kind of place where locals genuinely eat, not somewhere trying too hard with Instagram-bait presentation. The space is compact and buzzing, packed with families, students, and anyone who knows their pho from their bánh mì. You're eating Vietnamese street food done properly: fragrant broths, crispy spring rolls, and that perfect balance of heat, sour, and fresh herbs that makes you wonder why you don't come here every week.
