Ginger & Chives
The standout dish at Ginger & Chives is undoubtedly their bún bò huế, frequently praised as a spicy and intensely flavourful experience that rivals home cooking. Many reviewers highlight the hearty broth brimming with beef, pork, and lemongrass, describing it as the best they’ve tasted outside of a family recipe. However, one customer suggested a touch more star anise and traditional Vietnamese spice would elevate this already delicious offering even further, appealing to those seeking authentic flavours.

“Another lovely and very delicious lunch. Welcomed as we walked in and had our drinks and condiments on our table within a couple of minutes. Today I had the Bun Bo Hue, spicy thick vermicelli noodles served in a hearty beef, pork and lemongrass broth with sliced beef and pork. Delicious.”
