Khoai Cafe (Vietnamese) – Review – London, England (6.5/10)

August 10, 2008 by Helen Yuet Ling Pang

I HAVE MOVED MY BLOG TO WWW.WORLDFOODIEGUIDE.COM. CLICK HERE TO READ THE REST OF THIS POST. IT’S EASIER TO NAVIGATE THE NEW BLOG, WHICH HAS MORE CONTENT AND PHOTOS. THANKS! HELEN YUET LING PANG

I had high expectations of Vietnamese eaterie Khoai CafĂ©, so when I finally went, it was a bit of a let-down to be honest. The expedition started off badly too. We went to the Crouch End branch and even though we used to live near there, we wandered up and down trying to find 6 Topsfield Parade. I’m ashamed to say that I was snappy with the waiter when I phoned to ask for directions, and was all the more embarrassed when he knew it was me the moment I walked in the door. And he even gave me a menu to take home, to save me having to write everything down in my notebook…

    Hello Helen,

    I regularly read your blog, and find it very informative and enjoyable. Thank you for amusing me!

    I see that you have not have good luck with Vietnamese food recently. Have you tried Cay Tre in Old Street? I went there in December last year and found it brilliant. I scribbled about it here.

    Let me know what you think, if you have chance to visit there.

    Cheers

    Hello gataki

    Thanks so much for sending me your review of Cay Tre. It was really interesting to read. It’s actually on my list of restaurants to visit, along with Song Que, but I just haven’t had the time to go to either! So I’m not going to give up on Vietnamese food yet…

    Looking forward to Cay Tre!
    Helen Yuet Ling
