If only I could have a bowl of pho...



PHO GA Soup!

So, this is all that I wanted this evening for dinner.  Sadly, because I don't live near a variety of restaurants, pho was unavailable for me this evening. I googled, and I hoped furiously that there would be a place I could get the pho in Killeen since it is an army town, but alas, I could find none listed online...well, one but I couldn't tell if it was in a shady part of Killeen or not, so, I passed.  As soon as I can get to KIM PHUNG restaurant, in Austin, TX, I am there!  I really thought about driving there tonight, but since I had no other reason to drive to Austin and I actually couldn't think of something that I needed to buy there, I did not.  Sadness.

Instead, I got the best substitute available: Thai food from a little quick prep place in town.  Now, my thai food was tasty, but I have to say Pad Mee, is just not the same as Pho soup!  (But the peanut sauce was awesome...for my fresh spring rolls!)

That's all, I just needed to share about my fruitless search for pho soup this afternoon/early evening.

Friend - I know the feeling. They have every other delish Asian-type food here, but no Vietnamese. Why? I guess the Vietnamese aren't attracted to the middle east? Anyway, Pho is on my list of "must-eat foods", since I haven't had it since LAST YEAR :(. So we should make a Pho date! not so long now! xoxo
