U&i 24h Cafe

Almost an institution when it comes to Vietnamese food in Northbridge, this restaurant has been around for what seems like forever. Over the years it has been consistent in its offerings which were maybe not the top but still a good average across the many Vietnamese restaurants around. However, on the latest occasion we went, the food was a little less consistent. On one hand they offer some intensely flavourful broths like with the Braised Duck Egg Noodle Soup, but on the other hand the pork chop in the broken rice was quite dry and lacked enough flavour. However, overall it's still a decent place to go for Vietnamese food with a reasonably large dining area. They also currently run a 10% off promotion for takeaways.

Had beef with lemon grass and rice noodles. It was very delicious! Good prices (11-16$ most of it). But sitting near the door is not a nice atmosphere. Felt the cold wind blowing into the restaurant every time the door opened. Second time we did not sit at the door and the food was again excellent. Prawn dumpling soup, huge portion, $15.50. A friend was also more than happy with a seafood soup.
