Revisit verdict? This was, unfortunately, the last time we ever got to experience Qua'n 888. The next time I had a craving for their delicious deep fried rice cakes, we discovered that they'd been taken over. Sad face. I still crave that dish. I'm so glad we got to try it, and their Cau Lau - a dish recommended by a friend who has visited Vietnam numerous times, but has never found the dish in Melbourne.
