Cháo Nghêu Cô Gió
Description
A clam porridge spot near the beach that does one thing and does it well – cháo nghêu, served in generous portions with plenty of large clams. The sea breeze and fans keep things comfortable at lunch, which matters more than you’d think when you’re eating hot porridge in coastal heat.
The crowd gets thick, the setting is basic, and the porridge runs a little thin on the consistency side (more soup than thick congee). At 40,000 VND for a bowl with ribs, nobody’s complaining about value.
One review flagged a bad batch of clams leading to food poisoning from the special bowl – worth sticking to the standard order rather than the đặc biệt until you know the place.
