About a year ago I was out with my son for the day and we stopped for a
late lunch at a Vietnamese place. I had never had Vietnamese food before
and had some expectation that if would be similar to Chinese and/or
Thai, being in the same general area. I was really disappointed. It was
not horrible, but it wasn't very good.

M wife is away for the week so he called up and asked if I would like to
go out for supper with him and he suggested I give Vietnamese another
try because there was a good one near his place. He said they had
similar dishes, but that this place is much better. He was right. It
was quite good. It is not only tasty, but it is downright cheap. Their
entrees were about the same price most places charge for an appetizer.

My big mistake was having a Vietnamese coffee. The waitress explained
that they do it the old fashioned way, using a drip filter gizmo that
drained into a glass that had about half a can of sweetened condensed
milk. It was good, but way too sweet for me. As I sit here three hours
after my regular bed time I realize how potent that coffee was. He told
me after I ordered it that it would probably keep me up all night, but
he has issues with caffeine issues and never drinks coffee in the evening.
