L P Vietnamese Noodle Soup - Kurunjang

Insta: melbfoodie_mark<br/ YT: MelbFoodieMark<br/ <br/ Finally a pho place in the city worth mentioning! I was getting sick of expensive half ass pho in the city but this one was on point authentic. Just from the broth alone you will notice a huge difference compared to other places : Big portion, decent pricing, and simply, flavourful. Don't expect fantastic service though lol. Possibly the best one in the city!

While it’s not hard to find a Vietnamese restaurant in Melbourne, it is hard to find a big steaming bowl of delicious vegetable pho. Luckily, Pho Dzung City Noodle Shop on Russel Street has it covered. . Offering 21 different types of pho including tripe and tendon for the more adventurous type), and serving up dishes of lemon, beansprouts, Thai basil and chilli before you even get a chance to place your order, it's becomes pretty clear quickly that people only come here for one reason only the pho. Whilst not technically pho which I understand has to be made with beef broth), the vegetable noodle soup with chicken stock $15) was one of the best Veggie fake) phos I’ve had in Melbourne. It’s good mix of veggies, use of fresh produce and delicious fragrant stock made it a dish that I would definitely come back for.

3.8<br/ Pho specializing eatery in the CBD.<br/ <br/ The place is pretty spacious, altho space between tables can be bit close. During my first visit it was lunchtime and the staffs were all pretty nice, especially the lady serving me. However during my recent visit after lunchtime, the staffs were behind counters at all times, so we had to come over to order and ask for stuffs which was bit disappointing, food did come out pretty quick.<br/ <br/ 1st visit:<br/ <br/ I had my pho with beef brisket slices, beef fat, tendons and meatballs beef base soup . I actually asked for chicken as well but she probably didn't remember or the chef made a mistake. Either way, I was okay with that. Their medium size was so generous, my friend had their large which was huge. I do think that they added more noodles rather than meat, though I'm not very sure. Anyhow the meat was generous, the soup was quite flavorful and hearty. Beansprouts, basil leaves and lime slices on the sides were pretty fresh.<br/ <br/ 2nd visit:<br/ <br/ Special beef pho medium had all the same beef parts as the one I had previously, though I changed the sausage to meatball instead. Still highly enjoyable, meats were tender, soup was still tasty and portion was still generous. However also still bit too much noodle to pair with the toppings.<br/ <br/ Bun bo hue traditional hue spicy beef soup was also really yummy, definitely something to have if you're after more flavour and it's not too spicy too, quite mild even which I liked. The noodle was nicely cooked, with nice pork ham, beef brisket.<br/ <br/ Prawn spring rolls were yummy, nicely fried and had great flavor, good filling to skin ratio too!<br/ <br/ Overall, price was worth the portion and taste, though my recent visit suggests that they need to work on their service.<br/ <br/ P.S It's cash only unfortunately, though ATM machine is apparently provided as written in the signboard <br/ ALSO their door is such a PAIN to open and close.<br/ <br/ follow for more! <br/ <br/ ｘｘ，ｊｏｅｌｌｅ

I’ve been here several times and I always without a doubt get my beef ball pho. They offer it in three bowl sizes (I usually get medium). Always delicious and the tea is always nice and warm.

I can’t remember how many times I have walked past this shop but didn’t get a chance to try. When it comes to pho, I tend to have my own favourite place. However, it was worth trying in here. Will definitely come back on a cold day
