Something else from Saigon Ve Wong – Shrimp & Crab flavor! I sure found a lot of these down in California at the Dublin 99 Ranch Market. They’re pretty cheap too – I think these were around a dollar. I recently had a request that I include the prices of these noodles on my reviews – and that’s going to be a little tricky… See, when I go noodle hunting, I end up getting as many new kinds as I can and a lot of the time the receipt has a list – and extremely cryptic listings. So I’ll do my best – I can do an ‘around’ pricing kind of deal. So yeah – this was around a buck. Anyways…
Four packets! Sweet! Starting top left going clockwise: veggies, seasoned oil, powder soup base, chili powder.
Everything sitting atop some rice noodles.

So this was better than I expected – the noodles came out a little more al dente than usual – usually a complaint but it worked here. The broth was very tasty – lots of nice veggies and bits of shrimp. I was very happy with this one – 3.75 out of 5.0 stars.
Vietnamese noodle fondue? Oh wow this looks really cool!
Travel video about Vietnam – looks pretty interesting!
This looks good. Thanks for including the prices! I don’t live near Asian markets and have to order online.
Nothing local eh? That’s really tragic I must say – that would drive me insane… Like I said about the prices – they’re ballpark figures – usually when I find a place I start filling my basket with untried varieties and hit the checkout.
