Quang Resaurant

`\| - Sep 8

we had a dessert from here, the mung bean with coconut cream, that was good. we went back for lunch and had veg spring rolls, which were bland and pretty uninspired. probably the dipping sauce had fish in it, or it tasted funny. for entree, we shared the veg stir fry dish with rice. it was a lot of food, but it tasted mainly of oil and the carrots were overcooked, the tofu was spongy and yellow (not really fried), and it seemed like the cook didn't care. we got another dessert, which was some spongy bread that had a coconut flavor and almost bouncy texture. this was good, as was the first dessert we had from there. but clearly the main dishes are lacking in taste and quality.

Quang has large portions and a decent number of vegan options. But the food itself is industrial, heavy, oily and salty in taste; it surely lacks the delicate flavors that Vietnamese food calls for. Jasmine Deli is still the undisputed king of Vietnamese food and will remain that way. In terms of atmosphere, Quang seems more like a greasy Chinese diner/buffet with laminted tables, vinyl seating and fluorescent lights. This is a good place to get your fix for oily, heavy food, but it is no culinary gem, nor is it representative of true Vietnamese cuisine.

The waitress knew what was in the food, and she knew what vegetarian was all about. I had the Vermicelli Salad with tofu and mock duck. It was pretty good, but I'm spoiled by Jasmine Deli's. The service was good, and the food came out really fast, even though they were pretty busy. If you order the Vegetarian Vermicelli Salad, they substitute soy sauce for fish sauce automatically. All of the Vegetarian options are printed in green on the menu, which I liked because it really helps to speed things up when figuring out what to order.
