Easy Boy! brings Vietnamese fine dining to Scullin
The Ratanakosol brothers, behind Morks and Minima, open Easy Boy!, a Vietnamese restaurant in suburban Scullin.
is a sharp, bright Vietnamese restaurant now open in Scullin Place, run by the same brothers behind Canberra's Morks and Minima. Groups of four or more eat from a $65-per-head tasting menu.
Dishes stand out: pork nem nuong spring rolls are big and stuffed with fresh carrot, chicken wings carry a sticky fish sauce caramel, and kingfish ceviche comes with pineapple salsa and bacon. The beef short rib dissolves in the mouth, rich and flavourful.
Service is knowledgeable and casual. The restaurant signals what suburban dining can become: experimentation that brings serious eating to corners of the city.
