1. Mrs Pho
Introduction:
Mrs Pho is a tribute to all the Vietnamese mothers, grandmothers and aunties they affectionately crown best cook in the family, best cook in the neighbourhood, best cook, period. Everyone has their own ‘Mrs Pho’. And eating at her place is like eating out at home. It is on this simple idea that they built their restaurant; a place where they feed you like family.
Eating at Mrs. Pho is more than just a meal, it is a lesson in ‘Pholosophy’, a genuine slice of Vietnamese culture from plate to fit out. Everything has a story, and the joy, for them, has been weaving these narratives into a visual and culinary experience that they hope you will delight in, as you discover one quintessential dish at a time.
They believe in making a difference by striving for the same, by staying true to traditions, by adhering to authenticity. At Mrs Pho, they are ‘Pho Real’. There is no bastardisation nor is there any ‘fusion’ on the menu here — it’s traditional Vietnamese food. Just like how Mamma used to cook.

Introduction:
Que is a quick concept food kiosk selling modern Vietnamese food in the heart of Somerset.
Born out of a conversation by the pool with a friend (both in mid-career crisis if you just have to know) by accident , Que has evolved from a coffeeshop stall in Toa Payoh as test bed to a food kiosk at Somerset area to bring the owner’s personal interpretation of modern Vietnamese food to the local while still staying its authentic core.
The idea was to build an F&B startup based on Lean Startup methodology. It seems to work (with lots of lost skin, burnt, cuts, tears and pain!) ! While both Toa Payoh and even Somerset are still MVP (minimum viable product) versions, they are working hard toward a day where Que has a proper location serving interesting and nice Vietnamese food and playing jazz whole day. One step at a time, baby steps are preferred over here.
Que, or Quê, pronounced same as “que” in “que sera sera” means Home town in Vietnamese. When Que’s owner was looking for a name for this business, suddenly this just popped into her head and refused to go away, together with the song (lol!). That’s how Que was born/chosen.
