Adventures in Lent-land: Day 3--Pho Saigon!
Now, what do you think I ordered?......
Beef pho, of course! :D I've been craving it for a while and was dying to try it there! I ordered the large bowl full of rare beef steak, beef brisket, beef flank, and tripe. They gave me a rather paltry and small dish of bean sprouts and herbs....I wish they had given me more, but it's okay.
The broth was very clean-tasting and I loved the flavors! Some might consider it a bit bland, but I love tasting the freshness of the broth and the ingredients. :) There was so much meat in the bowl I couldn't even finish it! There weren't as many noodles as I would have liked, but that just means I will order extra next time lol! ;D I really enjoyed this bowl of pho and I am really glad that Walnut Creek has a nice and cheap Vietnamese place. I swear, Pho Saigon totally reminded me of places in Stockton! I ended up telling my dad all about the places Andrew and I frequent--I can't wait to share that Extra-Large bowl of pho at Mama Pho with him again sometime! :D
The interior of the restaurant in very clean and well-lit, with red walls and tasteful decorations. There are two large flat screen TVs mounted on the walls, which my dad found funny. Since it is across the street from Kaiser, there are many doctors and nurses inside on their lunch breaks lol.
