The new Quan An Ngon

We finally stepped into the "new" Quan An Ngon Vietnamese Restaurant last night - about a year or so after it reopened. The old restaurant was demolished and a new one rebuilt in its place. The old Quan An Ngon was famous for its wide variety of Vietnamese food and more importantly, for its really reasonable prices...but that was more than 3 years ago.

Prices have increased 2-3 times. This makes it no more fun to dine there (as far as I'm concerned). For instance, a sinh to (fruit shake) costs 42,000vnd, a coconut 25,000vnd, a bowl of pho 42-48,000vnd, a cafe sua da (ice milk coffee) 32,000vnd, and crab cost 460,000vnd/kg. The quality of the food is just average. I think the only reason I would want to go there again is probably to bring some visitors there because the wide range of Vietnamese food under one roof.
