(Although probably only in Vietnam, although I wonder if Bo De Trai in Footscray do a vegie version?)<br /><br />http://www.sbs.com.au/food/article/4576/Pho_Restaurants:_A_Guide<br /><br />Hi Daniel! Cha, don't be self-consciousness about noodle slurping. It's all about being in the moment! Besides, I forgive anything when I overhear someone ordering offal-y things, given that I am such an offal weakling. <br /><br />Hi Bryan and Kurichan - thanks for stopping by and here's to some pho meditation soon. :)Lauren aka Ms Bakloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08540872180823771651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166641060916490585.post-20101935192464814332011-03-29T09:20:23.010+11:002011-03-29T09:20:23.010+11:00I do wish there was a vegie version of pho!

When I'm not going to Hung Vuong aka 'the one next to nab' I do like Hien Vuong 'the one opposite Westpac'. I have a lingering Anglo self-consciousness about the messiness of slurping noodles, and the mirrored walls at Hien Vuong just seem to multiply it. Maybe I need some mindfulness to block them out ;) xo DanielAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
