Eat Fuh
In a suburb that has so much top-notch Vietnamese food, it could be hard to stand out, but this spot has managed to do exactly that.
Overview
Situated on the 'Little Vietnam' end of Illawarra Road, Eat Fuh has been in the game for many years. But you don't have to go to Marrickville to try some of the best Vietnamese in Sydney. The team dishes up noodle soups, vermicelli and rice dishes in shopfronts and pop-up market stalls all over the city.
The service here is what you might expect considering the line on the street — it's fast and without frills since the team knows you're here for the food and not any kind of fine dining.
The signature Fuh Noodle Soup (pho) is the obvious order. The meat options include rare beef, flank and chicken.Vegan? No worries, opt for the meat-free pho that uses a totally vegetable-based broth. And if you're not looking for pho, there's a killer chicken laksa with king prawns, chicken, tofu, fried onions, coriander and a divine laksa broth.
Other options include a lean beef stir-fry with rice, eggplant and tomato relish or rice with garlic and pepper chicken and seasonal vegetables. For an entree try the shrimp and pork dumplings.
If you order your pho in-store, it comes in a giant, seemingly bottomless bowl. And when you get it delivered, everything is packaged separately. You just need to combine the steaming and surprisingly complex bone broth — layered with star anise, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, ginger and onions — with the noodles, garnishes and your chosen meat (we recommend the rare beef and flank).
Hot tip: if you like to plan ahead, Eat Fuh has an option to order the broth early. Chuck it in the fridge and reheat it when you're ready to eat. There's no need to test your luck with delivery riders who might get lost or be in short supply when you're hungry.
