Bringing the tradition of Vietnamese food to this Northern Cairns Shopping Centre required more than simply great food.  In a competitive foodcourt environment a restaurant must convey a clear message from a distance – in this, Pho Pho succeeds.

A compact kitchen combining the theatre of fresh preparation with a back of house was carefully planned to work efficiently for the staff and maximise the visual statement to the customers.  Balancing the approach & service flow of three seating areas required the design to work from all sides. The palette is bold of colour & iconic with its symbolism of Vietnam. This is street food, so it embraces the energy of pattern and vibrant finishes.  The customers prove its success.
