Tucked away in a tiny strip mall, in Silver Lake, Pho Cafe is a hidden gem. The only Vietnamese restaurant I have to compare it to, is Lime and Basil in Chapel Hill, NC. Pho Cafe, is just as tasty, while cheaper. This wasn’t my first attempt at eating here. The first time, Scrumptious, Joe and I were in a time rush, and figured Pho Cafe would be a quick place to eat. If we hadn’t spent 30 minutes looking for it, then I think we would have been fine. If you call them, they say, we are near the liquor store, and are the ones without a sign. On this strip of sunset, there are 4 liquor stores within sight. Once we had found it, there wasn’t enough time, and we put it off for another day.
Back to the day at hand. Three of us again ventured to Pho Cafe. After a quick 10 minute wait, we had menus in hand and were sitting down. I ordered a Beef Pho,<a href=”http://bp1.blogger.com/_7AxTlvbUylY/SIQeitDJZZI/AAAAAAAAAtQ/S7mlAKnG6Ds/…
Here in the town I study, D, there is a Pancake Cafe but we students call it Pancake House. It is small, lovely, quaint and serves simple but amazing pancakes. Unlike MacDonald’s, this place serves thin ones. Almost like crepes. The menu is simple. 3 savoury and 4 sweet pancakes. In the past week alone I have been there twice! I so wanted to go back today but it does not open on Monday. A big disappointment for me.
Every time I am there, I always order the Feta, Spinach and Mushroom Pancakes followed by a Cinnamon, Honey and Banana Pancake. I share with a friend of course as the portion is simply too big.
Sweet Pancakes come with either Creme Fraiche, Cream or Vanilla Ice-cream. I always have it with the Vanilla Ice-cream. It is so creamy and sweet.
