    Great looking ribeye, my favorite cut for grilling. Had one myself last night. I like the bone in ones myself.

    MM, have to ask, what did you try for your first experience of Vietnamese food?

    I usually get a grilled lamb noodle bowl with the fish oil, healthy and extra good. :)

    I'm not too fond of that cooking. If it was really "authentic", your food is looking back at you, like "fish heads and rice", for example. :nonod:

    Started out with a spring roll and some tasty dipping sauce.... Very fresh and tasty....:D It had a nice large shrimp tucked away in there and didn't have the usual cabbage like the chinese egg rolls I'm used to....

    [​IMG]

    #23......:Thumbsup: Won't even try to say it, real tongue twister....
    It was kind of a salad I guess....
    A medley of...
    Warm vermicelli rice noodles with sliced BBQ pork. Sliced pork egg roll diced lettuce. With a kind of vinegary sweet-sour garlicky dressing....

    All delivered to the table by a very proud owner Mr Amp, who went into great detail about explaining the differences between Chinese and Vietnamese food, all cooked fresh by his family back in the kitchen.....

    [​IMG]

    First time I have ever tried the "Bubble Tea".... Sweet tea with a splash of cream and chewy black balls of tapioca beads in the bottom.... all sucked up through a gigantic straw....:D

    [​IMG]

    I personally like to experiment and try out different "ethnic" foods.... The only bad experience was with an Ethiopian restaurant, but maybe it was an off day.... :frown5:

    Total price came to $25.00 for the two of us.... We'll be back.....:)

    MM, good choice for your first experience with Vietnamese food. :)

    Just J, I have had that experience of seeing my food eye me up as I reach out with my chop sticks. :)

    Worst experience was in central China, nice little place along the Li River, river fish = river carp, the Li is not the most pure of rivers.

    A bit better than catfish with whiskers. :(

    Oh! tonight had a light Panni ham sammie toasted with a nice macaroni salad on the side, extra good!
