Shameless photoblogging

You know, there are certain foods that are so cheap and fulfilling when you eat them at restaurants that you never think of making them yourself. One of these things is pho. And yet, there I was, last Saturday, witnessing the creation of home-made pho. Quelle bizarre!

Preparation material for pho takes up a whole counter! Of course it is sharing with the culturally diversity hire, hummus and grilled pita (And also this stuff called "mountain bread", which is this very very thin unleavened bread cut into squares).
