Phobidden Fruit is a nice, warm and cozy little place which serves Vietnamese food. The restaurant is right across Rahul Dravid's house in HAL 2nd Stage, Indiranagar. It has a nice soothing atmosphere with it's cozy decor and nice soft oldies playing in the background.
I had never had the pleasure of relishing Vietnamese food and since I had read about this place on the net (and wasn't in the mood to cook on a Saturday night), I decided to explore.
I reached the place around 8:30PM with an empty stomach and a curious tongue, and started with Banh Cuon. Banh Cuon is a crepe like roll made from a thin sheet of rice flour and mixed with chicken and mushroom, and I loved it. For the main course, we ordered Crab Green Pepper and Pho. The Crab was delicious and the gravy brilliant. The Pho is a Vietnamese noodle-soup served with chicken or beef. The soup is made of noodles made of rice and was served with basil, sprouts, onion, chilli, lime and a couple of sauces. This is the most popular dish of Phobidden Fruit and it lives up to the expectations. One bowl of this noodle-soup is more than enough for even a hungry man like me.
My first tryst with Vietnamese food was a delightful experience and though the dinner filled up my stomach, it left my heart craving for more.
Phobidden Fruit is a bit heavy on the pocket and dinner for two would cost around Rs.1000.
