  1. Mộng Thu Cafe

    Vietnamese Coffee Shop

    A small Vietnamese soup shop on Hyde Street where the bowls arrive fragrant with star anise and lemongrass and the menu doesn't wander far from what it does well. The hủ tiếu nam vang, with its clear broth and shrimp fritter, is the kind of thing people describe to strangers, and the beef stew comes with a fluffy loaf of bread for soaking up the braise. Lunch for under fifteen dollars, served by someone who has clearly made these recipes a thousand times.

    Two honors, in evidence:

    One number, weighted & current 77

          Best Place Score
