NamNam, Raffles City

NamNam, Raffles City

It's been quite a while since we've had anything from NamNam. The last episode which was a little more than a decade ago did not inspire confidence. Wow, they've been around that long huh? Anyways, this was the outpost at Raffles City (#B1-47 Raffles City, 252 North Bridge Road).

NamNam, sliced beef beef ball pho

We're pretty sure that the broth we had today is a different recipe from the one we had previously. This one was pretty decent. Not heavy but still beefy. The thin slices of beef were tender and the meatballs dense and robust. What we found out today was that cilantro/coriander is chopped up and mixed with the other "herbs" so I had to omit all or nothing. That left us with just spring onions in the broth. Which was fine. Would not mind eating it again.

NamNam, signature banh mi

Bánh mì was kinda textbook if you catch my drift. It's not bad tasting and that was just it. Guys like 123 ZÔ, Viet9 and Bánh Mì Saigon would blow this rendition out of the water. But like I mentioned, it didn't suck. It was just what it was. A safe and regular bánh mì.
