Chinatown is filled with some amazing Vietnamese joints. Restaurants where you can sip on soothing pho and crunchy spring rolls on the cheap. I love many spots, and checked out one last week called Nha Trang Centre, that hit the spot.

Tasty and crunchy spring rolls ($5) were perfect. Deliciousness.

The pho ($6.25) here was fabulous. Soothing and wonderful, just how it should be.

Frog legs ($9.50) with chili and lemongrass was awesome. Just the right amount of sweet and spicy. Juicy, tender, frog leg perfection.

Hollow vegetables ($9) with garlic sauce was wonderful. Gotta get your greens.

Another day, another Chinatown gem. Great and tasty food, for not a lot of money. A great bang for your buck indeed.
