This is a small Vietnamese joint located on the corner of Main Street and 33rd Avenue. They have a menu consisting of pho, rice dishes, vermicelli and drinks. I had their Grilled Lemongrass Chicken, Deep Fried Spring Roll on Rice Vermicelli and Vietnamese Coffee. I really enjoyed the food. The prices were a bit on the higher end, but not unreasonable. This is a spot that's definitely worth a visit.
Grilled Lemongrass Chicken, Deep Fried Spring Roll on Rice Vermicelli ($12.25):
3.5/5
I really enjoyed the spring roll, which was very crispy and had a nice savoury filling. The chicken was quite tender and juicy, although I would have liked it to be a bit more charred, and it was a tad underseasoned. The pickled vegetables were quite nice, but
Vietnamese Coffee, Cold ($5):
4/5
This consisted of drip coffee in a filter that's over a cup containing a layer of condensed milk. You wait for the coffee to slowly flow into the cup and mix it with the milk. I wanted the coffee to be cold, so it came with a glass of ice. The coffee was quite strong and had a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness with the condensed milk.
Summary:
Food: 4/5
Price: 3.5/5
Service: 3/5
Overall: 3.5/5

Bon Cafe is along Main street on 33rd ave. We pass by this shop all the time whenever heading down to Pho Tan to get our Pho fix. We decided to try something else for a change so we can blog about it. The shop is rather small and appears to be run by a husband and wife team. The decor is not too spectacular and could use an update here and there.

I come here regularly for lunch as they are fairly quick with service. Their Bon's special sub is very good. It has the perfect ratio of meat and pickled veggies. The bun isn't too hard like other bahn mi shops. The spring roll that comes with the special combo is a little small. When I get the lemongrass chicken with vermicelli the spring roll is much bigger.
