A Vietnamese place that I'm not sure how to enter the accented characters to spell correctly.

It's a small place that serves pho, hu tieu, and Vietnamese submarines. That's a first for Ottawa, to my knowledge, to serve pho and submarines in the same place.

Pho and hu tieu is $7.00 and only comes in one size. Deep frides spring rolls are $3.25, and sub sandwiches are $2.25 each. Bun is also available.

Their hours are 10:30AM to 9PM except on Sunday when they close at 7PM. And they are CLOSED MONDAYS.

A new entry in the Pho Bo Ga "chain" that's been open since last year.

Open daily 10AM to 1AM, and Friday and Saturday until 4AM.

The menu is similar to others in that they have pho, Bun, Hu Tieu, Com, appetisers and drinks.

Pho comes in 4 sizes. Smalls are $6, Mediums are $7, Larges are $8 and XLs are $9.

This is right in the heart of Chinatown so parking is very hit and miss.
