Pho Saigon 07.01.06

Pho Saigon
Yup, even if it's going to be as plain of a meal as pho, i'm going to have an entry on it. This dinner was right after we returned from our snowboarding trip. We were pretty indecisive about where to eat, so we decided to get something simple, pho. My photos didn't turn out too well partially because I used my parents Powershot A540. I didn't want to risk taking my Canon 350d up to the snow.

#12 Large: Rare Steak and Brisket
I got the #12 large, which was Rare Steak with Brisket. Brisket is probably my favorite pho meat if done correctly. This place did not do it correctly, nor was the rare steak any good. The brisket was kinda tough and chewy. There might also have been a few slices of sour rare steak. Usually an indicator that the meat has gone back. Hey, I'm still here aren't I? At least the rice noodles weren't hard and clumped together. The soup...well I rarely drink the soup because it's usually MSG water so I can't make much of a comment on this one.

Would I go back again? Probably not in the near future, but I usually like to give restaurants a second shot. Perhaps a little earlier next time, and not when they're about to close. From initial impression, there are definatley a lot of better pho places nearby.
