Hu Tieu My Tho from Dalat on Park Avenue in Worcester, MA

Located on Park Ave in Worcester Dalat is a small place situated right on Park Avenue. The atmosphere is pretty nonexistent but what they lack in atmosphere they make up for in their food and outstanding service.  Our server spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about the menu items. In fact she had all the numbers memorized but appropriately responded back after I gave her my corresponding number with a short description of what I really ordered so as not to have any mistakes.

My husband and I chose an appetizer to share from the menu that sounded interesting. We chose “Goi Sua Tom” This was a salad of chicken and shredded cabbage with a very light vinegar type dressing. It was nicely sized to share and was a refreshing start to our meal.

For my meal I chose the “Seafood Noodle Soup” It had some crazy Vietnamese name called “Hu Tieu My Tho” That I can’t even begin to attempt to reproduce with my American accent. It was delicious however and came with a side of bean sprouts. I added several squirts of Sriracha sauce to mine to add a little bit of spice and found it to be very healthy with clear noodles and well filled with seafood including shrimp, fish cake slices, crabmeat and fish balls. I was only mildly disappointed to find my crabmeat of the “imitation variety;” I shouldn’t have expected real crabmeat but a girl can dream.

I would recommend this place to my friends and I would like to come back some time and try other items on the menu.
