Curry & pho for a summer evening

If you want to try an authentic Vietnamese restaurant (as they claim) in Shanghai, Saigon Mama is a delicious option you should try. Ambience is charming, staff is nice and seem to be happy in their work.

My order was a chicken yellow curry 🍛. Very tasty and right amount of spicy (be sure you tell the cook how much/little spice you can manage). Bowls are huge, yet my plate looked a bit empty (or maybe I just wanted more). Pho 🍜 dishes are the most popular among the other clients, and delivery orders.

A detail the surprised me, was the coconut 🥥 over my rice. Give the meal a nice taste with the curry, not sure if this is just presentation or it’s common in Vietnamese food. In general, My experience here was quite nice.

📍 Shanghai Centre, No.1376, Nanjing West Road Floor 1 (Garage Entrance, Nearby Xikang Road), Jing'an
