just say no to “pho”
Dan and I went out for lunch today to a Veitnamese restaurant in CDN. I checked a few reviews and specifically went for something that offered more than “Pho” (Vietnamese rice vermiceli soup). Now don’t get me wrong, Pho is great, but it seems like 9 out of 10 Vietnamese restaurants in Montreal specialize in Pho, which makes it a bit frustrating if that’s not what you’re in the mood for. So anyway we ended up having our non-soupy vermicelli dishes as we hoped. Mine was a bit odd since it was a “roll your own” rice paper deal but I think I managed to do it right. We also split an iced coffee with condensed milk – haven’t had that in years. Very good.
We also had success finding a Brita tap filter at the small Rona on Cote des Neiges. I figured it might be out of the way enough that it wasn’t rushed during the pipe scare a few weeks ago.
I cleaned Miette’s cage and she was climbing on the roof again (this is fairly common for her) so I took a picture.
