The staff services, hospitality & foods served at Sao Nam were truly awesome ๐๐๐๐ป
Sao Nam (pork free) with a 2-storey building ๐ & proving very classical & nice ambience to enjoying their delicious tasty Vietnamese cuisine ๐ค๐๐ป
The founder, Mr Paul ๐จ๐ปwas so welcoming & passionate in sharing with us everything that he knows about Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ cuisine
Other than enjoying great foods served, we also learnt so much about Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ foods & its culture ๐
According to Mr Paul, generally Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ foods’ taste slightly different according to its region,
North region ~ foods tend to be slightly salty
Central region ~ foods tend to be slightly spicy ๐ถ
Southern region ~ foods tend to be slightly sweet
Goi cuon (Fresh prawn spring rolls ๐ฏ) ~ freshly rolled chicken slices with chives, lettuce, mint, vermicelli & fresh prawn. Dip with Hoisin sauce
As you may already know, Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ famous with all sort of their rice paper wrap rolls ๐ฏMoreover, Vietnam also producing lots of rice papers too
Very common, Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ rice paper wrap rolls ๐ฏare to dip with fish sauces to consume ๐๐ป๐
Cha gio (Deep fried chicken spring roll ๐ฏ) ~ fried minced chicken rolls with strips of carrot, yam & woodear mushroom. Delicately rolled in fine paper & deep fried in a golden crisp. ย Dip with fish sauce
For Vietnamese, this dish normally they will get a piece of rice paper, put the amount of herb/ vegetables, the meaty roll, then fish sauce/ chilies sauce, wrap up a roll ๐ฏ& then consume ๐
In this connection, even though the meaty roll is fried/ you may think oily, but after eating it by way of wrapping with vegetables ๐ฑ๐ฟ, it is much more balance & healthy ๐๐ป
That’s the reason why Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ๐ญ๐ฌ genetically slimmer, this is the secret ๐
Goi co hu dua tom thit (Young coconut shoot salad ๐ฅ) ~ย young coconut shoot with carrot, radish, onion, tarragon, fried shallot, peanut with Sao Nam fish sauce dressing.
Love the Vietnamese ๐ป๐ณ salad ๐ฅ dishes serving here, all very appetising& refreshing! ๐๐ป๐
Goi mang cut (Mangosteen & prawn salad ๐ฅ) ~ย an unique combination of mangosteen, dried squid flown in from Vietnam, grated fresh coconut & chicken slices. Topped with fresh tiger prawns, peanuts & sesame. With Chef Tien’s special kumquat dressing.
Especially this seasonal Vietnamese salad ๐ฅ, it has been localised to Malaysian tastes by using Mangosteen! Am impress with the creativity of Sao Nam chef ๐จ๐ปโ๐ณ team ๐๐ป๐๐ป
According to Mr Paul, this salad ๐ฅ is an award ๐ฅ dish! Bravo!
Bun thit nuong (Grilled lemongrass chicken noodles salad) ~ย chicken/ beef marinated with lemongrass, onion & garlic, then grilled. Served over vermicelli with fish sauce dressing.
Ha…Ha…SiennyLovesDrawing & her foodie friends were tossing this dish similar with Malaysian Chinese did normally during Chinese New Year ~ Lou Sang ~
This is very tasty dish from central region of Vietnam
Banh xeo (Vietnamese crispy pancake) ~ start with a rice flour batter, its taste enhance with coconut milk, turmeric powder & spring oinion. Folded in minced chicken, prawn, bean sprout & skillfully fried till edges are crispy.ย Dip with fish sauce

Again, best to consume by wrapping the crispy pancake in a piece of rice paper with some herb e.g. mint leaves ๐ / vegetables ๐ฑ๐ฟa roll ๐ฏ, then dip in chilies ๐ถ fish sauce to consume ๐
