A Gastronomic Side Note

Pho is eaten for breakfast here in Vietnam.

Our first day at our school we were taken out for breakfast for pho bo (beef pho).This week we were taken out for pho ga (pho with chicken) before teaching on Thursday. Now soup has never really been on my breakfast radar but lemme tell you this was delicious.

Also- fish sauce is a wonderful thing, as is msg. Cucumbers dipped in salt(and probably msg) and lime also make for a great salad (don’t worry mom—I’m eating plenty of vegetables...)

  1. Well, we have to go out and enjoy some American Pho Bo in Sacramento. There, you find the best deals and biggest bowls of phosational food!!!!
