ChanChan Vegan Noodle

100% great vibe and menu TASTE - 4/10 (The best part was the chilli sa te 🌶️) Worst part - 50% of the menu is sold out on a Monday evening Clearly, the photos don't match the real dishes - tasted pretty average. Rather go to some street chinese places in quan 5/6

OMG!😱Soooo good. The flavors, textures, tastes, variety… I’m a return customer. Chan Chan never disappoints. And the best of it all… it’s completely vegan. No worries about that. Today I had Oyster mushroom tempura, Tomato noodle soup and Fried Youtiao w pandan dip. It’s like a doughnut, but vegan. What can I say. Blown away.

🐼 FOOD REVIEW — CHANCHAN NOODLE Tonight’s dinner was an unplanned one. Halfway through our 5 km evening walk, we passed Chanchan Noodle and were intrigued by the vegan noodle concept, so we decided to stop and give it a try. The place itself is fun - retro Hong Kong vibes, plenty of neon and a quirky atmosphere that fits the concept very well. We kept it simple and had one bowl of their Hong Kong-style braised vegan noodle soup each. And honestly, one bowl per person was more than enough for a light dinner. The broth was the highlight: deep, aromatic and really flavourful. The mushrooms, tofu and vegetables added plenty of texture and substance. Overall, very tasty and an interesting reminder that a vegan noodle soup certainly doesn’t have to feel like a compromise. We added a sesame mochi afterwards. Probably the little extra we didn’t really need 😄, but a nice way to finish. The total came to 378,000 VND for two, including two noodle soups, drinks, the mochi and VAT so roughly 400k for two people. Nothing complicated and nothing pretending to be fine dining. Just a tasty, different and enjoyable stop during our evening walk. Definitely worth trying if you’re curious about vegan food, even if you’re not vegan. 🐼 Gau Truc verdict: 4/5 🔄 Willingness to return: 4/5

Honestly, this was my second time visiting this restaurant because a friend of mine wanted to have vegetarian food. I have to say that I feel the restaurant is a bit overhyped. First, the food was very basic and nothing special in terms of taste. Second, the service wasn’t great. After our first dish, we had to wait around 15–20 minutes for the second one. In the end, we decided to pack the remaining food after trying only a little of it. I also felt that the prices were quite high considering both the taste and the portion sizes. Lastly, the drinks were filled with so much ice that they became difficult to enjoy. Overall, it wasn’t a satisfying experience, and I don’t think it offered good value for the price.

This place was easily one of our biggest surprises. As big meat eaters, we didn’t expect much from a vegan noodle spot - but Chan Chan completely changed that. The noodles taste fresh, and every dish is packed with flavor. It doesn’t feel like “vegan food” at all - instead, it feels like a perfect representation of Asian cuisine, with really thoughtful use of seasoning and ingredients. We ordered the mixed noodles, Thai noodles, and fermented tofu noodles, and all of them were absolutely delicious. Each bowl had its own distinct flavor, and everything was well-balanced and satisfying. Overall, an amazing experience. We’ll definitely be back for more.
