BUZZ
LIKE MOTHER,
LIKE DAUGHTER
When former fashion editor Eve
Golden
opened Bungalow eight years
357 Millburn Ave.
ago,
it
quickly
became a top destination
973-379-8320
for women seeking the latest and best
bungalow63.com
in clothing, jewelry and accessories. Her
new boutique, SCOUT, is geared toward
the daughters of these women.
Golden describes Scout, open since July, as “a fun,
affordable little haven for a teen or pre-teen girl. We
carry a lot of separates, such as fun printed leggings,
denim, athletic leisure wear and T-shirts with fun
sayings.” Noting that jewelry always sells well at
Bungalow, she also offers a wide selection at Scout.
The two shops are two doors apart, which makes
Golden very happy: “I expect a lot of crossover from
Bungalow customers.”

MILLBURN • SHORT HILLS MAGAZINE FALL 2016
VIETNAMESE CUISINE
Hoa Doan and Andy Vo, the husband and wife
team who own Salon la Mode on Millburn
Avenue, have branched into the restaurant
business and opened SAIGON CAFÉ in the old
Bella’s Bakery building. There is indoor and outdoor
seating, a bakery selling Vietnamese pastries,
caramelized flan and macaroons, as well as
smoothies and ACAI bowls.
There is also a full menu of Vietnamese appetizers
and entrees, including pho (a Vietnamese rice
noodle soup), vermicelli (thin spaghetti served with
crushed peanuts, chicken, beef, shrimp, pork or
tofu), and banh mi (Vietnamese sandwich made on
a baguette and served with pickled daikon,
jalapeno, cilantro and protein of your choice.) “We
have space upstairs so we can expand if we need
to,” says Hoa. Try their Vietnamese cold brew
coffee. “Do you like it strong? It’s strong!” Andy says,
laughing as he displays the large metal container he
brews it in. The coffee was strong, delicious, rich
and sweetened by condensed milk. “Come back
tomorrow,” Andy says. “Come every day!”
