normally i wouldn't join a queue for a restaurant, but 15 minute wait today at tan viet was an exception. this restaurant is famous for their crispy chicken, which is served with either dry/ soup noodles or tomato rice. the chicken meat is soft and juicy, underneath the thin crispy layer of skin.
for those who said tan viet is overrated, mind you, the majority dish they do is crispy chicken. so if you order a different rice or noodles dish, you shouldn't expect it to be superb. that being said, if you decide to order something else other than their signature dish, go for black herbal duck, hainam chicken, broken rice; and avoid the spicy beef stew at any cost.
