Co Chung Best Sellers

By Sing | October 21, 2026

The co chung best sellers list has one honest caveat up front: Co Chung publishes no official sales ranking and no official price list, so the ranking below is editorial, built from how often each dish appears in diner reviews, food blogs and the 2025 price guide. That is still useful, because the same names keep showing up everywhere: beef pho first, crispy spring rolls second, and a tight chasing pack of bun cha, cha ca and broken rice. If you only visit once, order from the top three and you will have tasted the restaurant properly. For the full price list, see the Co Chung menu hub.

What are the Co Chung best sellers?

The co chung best sellers ranking below runs from the signature bowl to the closing coffee, with prices from the 2025 guide and diner reports. Two prices need flags: bun cha is reported at S$12.80 in a food blog review and S$12.96 in the price guide, so expect something in that band, and two dishes, grilled beef in betel leaf and the dry vermicelli with grilled pork, appear on the official site without a widely reported price, so they sit outside the priced ranking and are noted separately below the table.

Which pho and noodle dishes sell best?

Beef pho sells the story of the restaurant. Reviewers describe thick, tender beef slices and a rich broth, and the serving style, noodles presented so you pour the broth over at the table, makes it feel like an event rather than a bowl of soup. Chicken pho at S$11.50 is the quieter best seller, the one regulars order when they want something lighter or when they are eating pho twice in one week. Hue spicy soup at S$12.50 is the third noodle star, bringing lemongrass heat from central Vietnam for diners who find standard pho too gentle. Bun cha at S$12.80 to S$12.96 deserves its fame beyond the price: it is the Hanoi dish of grilled pork belly and meatballs in fish sauce that the world knows from the famous Bourdain and Obama meal, and Co Chung’s version is the real thing, not a tourist imitation.

Pho beef noodle soup

Pho beef at S$12.50 is the dish to order on a first visit, full stop. It is the dish Co Chung is known for, the broth is the deeper and more complex of the two pho options, and at only a dollar more than the chicken pho, the upgrade is obvious. Add fresh rolls at S$3.20 if the table is sharing, and you have the classic Co Chung lunch for S$15.70 before drinks.

One more noodle note: the official site also lists a vegan pho, which is a genuinely rare find at Vietnamese restaurants in Singapore, and the crab paste and pork vermicelli soup (bun rieu) at S$12.50 is the pick for diners who want something more aromatic and complex than standard pho. Neither cracks the top five in review mentions, but both are worth knowing about for a second or third visit.

Which grilled and signature plates should you try?

Cha ca la vong at S$19.96 is the headliner above the S$12.50 anchor. It is a 150-year-old Hanoi dish: wild-caught catfish marinated in turmeric, ginger, spring onion and fish sauce, lightly grilled over charcoal, then served in a hot pan with vermicelli, dill, vegetables, peanuts and rice sesame crackers, with homemade shrimp paste on the side. At S$19.96 it is the priciest single dish most tables will order, and the one most likely to be remembered. Broken rice at S$12.50 is the opposite kind of signature, a southern comfort plate of fractured rice grains with charcoal-grilled pork, a sunny-side-up egg, pickled vegetables and nem nuong, and it matches pho on price, so the choice between them is purely about mood, soup or rice plate.

Crispy spring rolls

Crispy spring rolls at S$8.50 are the second best seller and the safest starter on the menu. Crab meat, prawns and minced pork in traditional rice paper, fried golden, served with a homemade dipping sauce. Reviewers call them perfectly crisp without being oily, and they work as a starter, a side to a main, or a shared snack while the pho arrives. Order them on every visit until you have a reason not to.

The morning angle matters too: Co Chung opens at 11am daily at both outlets, so the best sellers double as the late-morning orders, and the Co Chung breakfast menu guide explains which of these dishes work best as a first meal of the day. For the quirkier picks that regulars ask for by name, the Co Chung secret menu guide is the companion read.

What drink completes a best seller meal?

Coconut coffee at S$6.80 is the closing best seller, and for good reason on a hot Singapore afternoon: the coconut takes the edge off the robusta bitterness without drowning it. Vietnamese milk coffee, also S$6.80, is the classic, robusta with condensed milk, hot or iced. Egg coffee, the Hanoi specialty of whipped egg yolk over strong coffee, appears on the menu without a widely reported price, so treat it as a try-it-once curiosity and confirm the price in store. Skip the Pho Beef Revolution at S$23.90 unless it is a deliberate splurge: it is a deluxe loaded beef pho, and it does not crack the top 10 in review mentions, which tells you what regulars actually spend their money on.

Both outlets serve the same best sellers: Plaza Singapura, 68 Orchard Rd, #B2-20, Singapore 238839, and Boat Quay, 4-5 Lor Telok, Singapore 049018, open 11am to 10pm daily, phone +65 8876 8137. Go around 11:30am to beat the queue, since the Plaza Singapura outlet takes no reservations and popular dishes sell out.
