FOOD To say that Cam Wah is humble is probably best explained by the fact that it could lifted into country Vietnam and not be out of place. This is simple inexpensive street food but the noodles and soups are terrific, especially their Bún Bò Hué a very authentic chilli beef soup that comes with noodles, mint, lemon and bean sprouts. The beef is supplemented with finely sliced sausage, not unlike the Austrian Pariser sausage, which is a type of refined fritz and now found throughout Asia and China. Cam Wah is also famous for its Congee a thick rice soup that is something of an acquired taste for all but porridge lovers and also served for breakfast.
This is a restaurant where you either take a Vietnamese friend or resorting to pointing at the food on the table next to you is probably the only way to really get stuck into the entire menu. They do takeaway and what could be better or cheaper than taking home big bowls of chilli beef soup. Equally a quick early tea for the whole family without breaking the budget they have plenty of simple dishes that children would like. Serves are overly generous and at least half of my bowl remained uneaten. Stick to anything that is written in Vietnamese and English and at your own risk for the Chinese dishes written in English.
