In this episode of Hammy Eats, Nick Hamman lands in Cape Town to explore "I Love Phở", a brand new spot that has taken the Mother City by storm over the last six months with criminally underrated, fully Halal Vietnamese cuisine! 🇿🇦🇻🇳
If you think Asian food in South Africa is just standard takeout, think again. Nick sits down with the owner to unpack her inspiring journey. From growing up in Haiphong, Vietnam, and learning to cook from her father at age 13, to living in Taiwan, moving to South Africa with zero English, and building a restaurant that caters directly to the local Halal community.
"I Love Phở" is a vibrant celebration of Asian food culture. By blending centuries-old Vietnamese family recipes with Taiwanese, Japanese, and Korean influences, every single dumpling, roll, and broth is made from scratch with genuine heart and passion.
🥢 Nick gets stuck into:
🍜 The Signature Beef Phở – Slow-simmered, aromatic bone broth loaded with silky rice noodles, tender beef cooked right in the broth, fresh herbs, and lemon
🥖 Authentic Chicken Bánh Mì – Crispy French-style baguette stuffed with chicken paté, tender chicken, fresh cilantro, and balanced street food flavour
🍗 Double-Fried Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) – Ultra-crispy, sticky, sweet, garlicky, and spicy Korean chicken
🍣 Fresh Japanese Salmon Nigiri – Delicately sliced, high-quality salmon served with light soy sauce and a touch of wasabi
🥟 Homemade Fried Dumplings – Crisp, hand-rolled dumplings stuffed with savoury filling
Beyond the incredible flavours, this episode highlights how food acts as a bridge between cultures and brings communities together. Is this officially the best phở and bánh mì in Cape Town? Watch to find out!
🔥 Is "I Love Phở" serving the best Vietnamese phở in South Africa?
🥢 Bánh mì street food vs. a steaming bowl of beef phở—which one are you ordering first?
🍗 Have you ever tried double-fried Korean fried chicken from a Vietnamese spot?
👉 Watch now to discover one of Cape Town's most unique Halal food spots!
👍 Like if you agree Vietnamese food is criminally underrated!
