Husband and wife Son Do and Chinh Pham tell stories of their childhood in Saigon at this gem on bustling Belmont. The moniker is a marriage of their names, which not only enhances the charm factor but also makes total sense considering they were high school sweethearts. A set of glass doors marks the entry to this bright, modern space, fitted with a leather banquette and lush, colorful planters.The menu is modern Vietnamese with a focus on ingredient sourcing. Dishes display immense depth, so come hungry to sample the duck salad with banana blossoms; or pho, that national treasure, with bone broth, flat rice noodles, Wagyu short rib and aromatics aplenty. Desserts may change, but if the cassava cake or coffee flan are on offer, jump on it.
