I’m happy to share that my parents’ Vietnamese restaurant King Noodle House Pho Hoang will be one of five participating restaurants at the first-ever Edmonton Chinatown Dining Week running Jan. 20-28, 2018!
Mom and dad will be serving up a $15 two-course dinner featuring your choice of a large size bowl of pho + a spring rolls & grilled pork balls platter! (Note: the image above is not what you would get — but close, pork balls and spring rolls will be on the same plate!)
- King Noodle House Pho Hoang, 10615 97 Street (cash only)
Hours: Wednesday-Sunday 10am-7:30pm. Closed Mondays & Tuesdays
Appetizer: Spring rolls & grilled pork balls platter
Main: Your choice of a large size bowl of pho!
I know it says they formally close at 7:30 but I wouldn’t recommend popping in after 7 just in case they decide to shutter down earlier, as they’ve done in past (lol, sorry. The perks of being the owners of a small business).
I also wouldn’t advise you go on Saturday, Jan 20 any later than 3 p.m. as they’re closing early for a pre-scheduled event, but still wanted to be part of the rest of Chinatown Dining Week (again, lol, sorry).
My parents have been serving pho to Edmontonians for 21 years!
Here’s the full Chinatown Dining Week menu (copied from the Edmonton Chinatown website):

Congratulations to my friends Sharon and Freya, and their great team of volunteers, for putting together what I hope becomes an annual event in our city, and something that spurs even more Edmontonians to visit Chinatown for dinner! There are some truly delicious (and affordable) culinary gems in the Chinatown area and I’m always eager to spread the word about it!
