cious Vietnamese food, garnished with basil, mint, lettuce and sweet dips. The starter

; 3F-41 & 42, 3rd fl, Sungai Wang Plaza, Jln Sultan Ismail; mains RM13-16;
10am-10pm; ; monorail Bukit Bintang)
The owner of this uniquely decorated Asian comfort-
food cafe came up with the concept while sitting on the toilet - hence an interior that
doubles as a lavatory show room. Thankfully, the toilet-bowl seats are nonfunctioning.
Fun, but we make no promises for the quality of the food which includes such memorable
dishes such as 'big poo rice'.
