Instant Vacation: Vietnam!

I've been whining about instant vacation this past week. I needed it badly but I can't go too far, at least not for now.

But then my baby brother (who is no longer a baby.. oh how come?!) reminded me that I owe him a bowl of Pho that he was really curious about.

A couple of hour later, we're landed on the land of Vietnamese.

It's my second time in this Vietnamese restaurant. My first time was not memorable because I had something taste like chicken katsu or something. It was a fasting month and I chose not to kill my self with Vietnamese coffee although I wanted it so bad.

But this second time with Ari was quite an experience.

Ari ordered a regular bowl of beef Pho and Vietnamese coffee was my first choice.

Drip to perfection

Pairing with my coffee, I ordered a plate of fresh spring rolls.

Aromatic and fresh

It took only 3 minutes until that smoking-hot Pho finally came. Ari smiled sniffing the heavenly smoke.

"Oh my.. It is heaven!" He looked so glad.

I took a sip of the broth to find out.

"I'm going to order one for my self too, Ri!"

So there came my baby bowl of beef Pho. It's the same beef noodle but in a smaller bowl. It's a baby bowl, literally. 

A bowl of goodness

"This is a medicine. For heartache and toothache." I mumbled.

And that's all.

I spent my Saturday afternoon with my Ari. Too bad Fina wasn't around with us.

In the end of our journey, Ari listed the destinations that we already had. "Japan, Korea, Vietnam, America, uhmmm What's next, Kak?"

Next destination?

Thailand might be fun, huh?
