    Think rich, flavourful broth and springy noodles while being temporarily transported to the streets of Vietnam with their fun, comfortable decor. Their generous beef pho might also be one of the best ones around, and at only $8.90! Perfect for dinner with friends.

    The traditional steamed coconut rice here is tremendously fragrant and is FREE FLOW with any set or ingredients you choose. The winning combo of the rice with their two lip-smacking sambals (sweet and spicy) is so insanely satisfying, it almost doesn't matter what you get it with.

    All their beautifully plated desserts (like this Deconstructed Tiramisu, $9.90) are below $10! It not only looks pretty, it tastes pretty darn good too.

    That's how much each tart costs when you get a box of eight of these silky smooth beauties for $9! Don't bother wondering if you can really finish all 8. They'll be gone in a flash.

    One of the cheapest and best Shibuya Toasts around — the toast is so buttery, it lingers on your lips for days (in a good way, of course). Go for their Mango or Coconut ones!
