Pho shoah

The missus and I walked to Cafe Minh today to check out what is ostensibly the closest real Vietnamese restaurant to where we live. I ordered the pho (or phở if you want to get fancy) because that’s what I do on my first visit to any Vietnamese joint.

It was perfectly tasty, the broth was well crafted, the beef brisket was just tender enough, the beef sausage flavorful enough. Yet somehow the dish as a whole was lacking. It didn’t stop me from eating until I was about to pop … but it just wasn’t the pho that I wanted.

The service was borderline atrocious - zero personality. So! A decision has been made! My stomach was happy with my lunch, but my brain was dissatisfied, so to Cafe Minh I will not be returning.

I hope YOUR lunch was tops of the pops.
