"There are a number of excellent Vietnamese restaurants around town, especially in the Westbank. Tân Định is one of the best options, and a big reason why is the Creole and Vietnamese combinations you’ll find on the menu. Look no further than the fried frog legs that come with a side of lime juice, salt, and pepper that perfectly cuts through that rich and super tender meat. There are other winners on the menu besides amphibians, including some extremely beefed-up spring rolls and a heaping plate of rolled vermicelli noodles that go great with some lemongrass pork skewers. The dining room is a pretty casual space—there are lots of huge round tables and early Kali Uchis is playing over the speakers, and it all makes for the perfect lunch or standout weeknight dinner." - Carlo Mantuano
