While doing laundry last night, G and I took advantage of a Vietnamese Pho restaurant close by the laundromat to have some dinner during our "dry" cycle.
Yummy spring roll appetizers with yummy dipping sauce. Yummy bits of leafy spices (when we asked the waiter what they were he said "Go in soup", to which we asked again, "Yes, but what is it called?" He quickly told us "No, we don't have anymore" and walked away. Okay.)
Our main courses come and G-man has a nice soup with lots of floating sprigs of this and that and some sort of meat (I think it was beef but it may have been pork, I didn't taste it). Then mine comes and damn if it didn't smell just like cat ass! What's up with that. It was supposed to smell like Chicken Ginger sprinkled with Cilantro. That would have smelled super yummy. But no. Cat Poo. I tried it and it tasted kinda not great at first but I was starving and for the time being, able to get past the "poo" smell and the not so fabulous taste. It's not that it tasted like poo or tasted bad even, it was just ... blah. I can't really describe it further than that. I eventually found some flecks of ginger and tried to get some with every bite but I eventually gave up on the dish 1/2 way into it. All the while G is mmm'ing and aw'ing over his yummy pork/beef soup. No fair!
