Can anyone recommend a good one?

Viet Lang, used to be in Chjimes then moved to the Arts House, was always a favourite of ours.

Went to one in Ho Chi Minh a few years ago but can't remember where it is for the life of me!

Does it need to be upscale or just authentic? If you want authentic, 169 Joo Chiat Road. Can't write down the actual name, it's in Vietnamese!

Bun at the Hollandse Club gets some great reviews.

Thanks for the recommendations! Decisions, decisions... have to admit, am leaning toward the Joo Chiat option, for authenticity and crazy ambiance. :)

Best pho and banh mi I've had in Singapore: Nam Nam Noodle Bar, basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre, and another one at Wheelock Place. The wagyu pho is unbelieveable,a nd the pork belly banh mi is awesome.

Somehow I always end up having the same thing (wagyu pho) over and over again... I have to try other stuff on their menu at some point, they all look delicious.
