Yesterday, invited by a Kiwi friend, I visited My Dung's Ikebukuro branch and found it very good. At first I was negatively impressed by the menu only in Japanese (no Vietnamese names) and by the fact that all customers were very young, mostly girls, but these turned out to be false alarms: the food is tasty and prices OK. I particularly liked the Vietnamese salami (Chozume in Japanese), the fried rice and the curry flavored fried chicken. The name of the restaurant (Myun in Katakana) and the menu are only in Japanese, so be alert when looking for the sign on the street and use the pictures when ordering. My Dung in Ikebukuro is easy to find. Come out of the west exit and go straight passing Marui (or OIOI if you prefer) at the large intersection. Go ahead until the police box on your left. Turn diagonally left, then turn right at McDonalds' and you will see Myun on the second floor opposite the convenience store.
