Only thing I couldn't work out was whether it was meant to be like a buffet where you could have a number of items on your plate, or if you just chose the one item + rice and token salad items.Brianhttp://www.nosite.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-79707138604540807882010-12-14T20:52:34.301+11:002010-12-14T20:52:34.301+11:00Have not been back to this place for awhile...

Georgie, you know there is Bo De Trai too? It's in Hopkins Street and is Vietamese vegetarian. See here for Deb's guest review: http://footscrayfoodblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/guest-post-bo-de-trai.html<br /><br />Part of the thing I like about Tan Truc Giang's vegetarian dishes though is there is such a mix of vegetables - it's not just bok choy and a couple of carrots.<br /><br />Adrian, I know right!! No matter how early I go, there is so much food!Lauren aka Ms Bakloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540872180823771651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-47137381697186553992010-12-14T13:32:02.025+11:002010-12-14T13:32:02.025+11:00I've been to this place a few times after a bi...I've been to this place a few times after a big night out!

I'm vegan, so too often my choices are limited to bun with spring rolls or a plain veggie stirfry, and as much as I love my bun, it will be awesome to get something different. Making a B-line for this place ASAP!
