Mama's Buoi is a new modern Vietnamese restaurant situated at GPO where Ramen Ya was formerly located. It's owned by the business owners of Roll'd to offer home-cooked style Vietnamese cuisine. So we decided to give it a try after our shopping at H&M.
The design of the restaurant is quite unique. It has the old style hawker street look and yet stylish. The food offered on the menu is quite different from the usual Vietnamese fare. It has more Vietnamese dishes instead of the usual pho and rice paper rolls.
At the end, we decided on a curry chicken with banh mi (Vietnamese baguette), grilled pork vermicelli salad and a small beef pho to share. The small beef pho is only $7. It's good for small eaters. Unfortunately, I'm not one.
We were quite impressed with the curry chicken. It has all the right flavours. Besides that, the curry sauce wasn't too thick, so it went pretty well with the baguette/bread. It's like having baguette with soup. Furthermore, there was a generous serving of ingredients.
I especially like the grilled pork salad. The pork was tender and the light dressing together with the fresh greens and vermicelli was so refreshing.
We are actually not a fan of pho, but we found that the beef pho was not bad.
Overall, the food was good and the service was extremely good. Thanks to the waiter for constantly refilling my glass with water without asking after the first refill. I'm just one thirsty person when it comes to dining. ;)
