“You had me at free food” … Today you say, just lead the way hombre

Has there ever been a movie quote more adapted than “You had me at hello”, and can it really be nearly two decades since ‘Jerry Maguire’ came out?

So let’s cut to the chase and summarise: ‘You had me at free food’ … Vietnamese food!

On this occasion it is the good people of LêLê Street Kitchen, who today are opening their fourth branch (the oldest and most established is on Vestebrogade) at the Fisketorvet shopping centre with free tastings and Tiger beer from 3-6pm.

Vietnamese with a French twist
The family-run business, which started ten years ago, offers a menu inspired by South Vietnamese food and a hint of French cuisine, with a focus on exotic and fresh ingredients.

In the immortal words of the Kaiser Chiefs: “I predict a riot”.
