I'll get back to you on the number. Exit Kamata Station on the South (Sculpture side, get back to you).
Turn left, pass the koban and continue down the "entertainment" street. At the end, you'll see a Vietnamese food shop on your left. They can give you directions if you're lost but My Le is just beyond. Cross the street bearing to your left and My Le will be a couple of doors down on the second floor. Open Everyday (I think) for dinner until 11.

This restaurant is the definition of funky. It is located in one of the few areas in Japan where you might feel vaguely anxious about your own safety. The Japanese waiter is truly hip in a likable way with excellent English and his Vietnamese fiancee (waitress and daughter of owner) is cute, gracious, and kind. Thank god the music isn't generic Vietnamese. It is jazzy, funky, lounge-y, bossa nova-y and all together enjoyable. To top it off, they have the flooring that was in my kitchen when I was a little kid which creates an odd kind of cognitive dissonance and consonance.

It is the food that is to die for. Pho Tai (aromatic Vietnamese "ramen", 800 yen) is great. Served with a plate of fresh herbs to be added to the already delicious stock base, the rice noodles are a delightful texture. Lip burning, but not throat burning, spicy. The aroma of the fresh herbs stays in your head for hours. Of course, you'll want the Fresh Prawn and Pork Spring Rolls(600 yen), also filled with fresh herbs and rice noodles. I believe the dipping sauce consists of chili sauce and a kind of tamarind paste with nuts but I'm not sure. The most deceptive dish is the apparently simple Fried Shrimp Springroll and Rice Noodle dish (800 yen) (I think Bun Kai Gyou but I forget). The combination is addictively tasty, fresh, and complex. Some other recommendations. The Vietnamese Omelet/Okonomiyaki(1200 yen), the Papaya salad (1000 yen). Bababa Vietnamese beer is slightly sweet and smooth (500 yen). Deserts can be skipped, though it is worth trying the Purple Potato and Tapioca Pudding for the hell of it (450 yen). I hesitate to share this restaurant as I had to wait this past Saturday because it was full despite its odd location but I cannot in good conscience keep it to myself.
