Description
Though chef Michael Huynh has parted ways with this Vietnamese eatery, his influence can still be spotted in the yellow, orange and gray dining room he designed. The menu is enormous, with 26 under-$12 shareable plates, like cool summer rolls filled with pork belly and shrimp. Ten bunthe rice noodles for which the restaurants namedinclude a rich and spicy lemongrass soup studded with roasted pork and brisketlike beef shin. A warm coconut tapioca dessert is light and refreshing, and as pleasantly surprising as everything else that comes out of the kitchen.

Bun is a keeper. Everything is amazing and unbelievably affordable. Will definitely be a regular. The rolls are to die for! Mad props to the chef.
Chef Michael Bao is great..
