petardierThis time a group from work went to Pho Hoa (1370 Dorchester Ave). We all had variations on Hu Tieu, a kind of seafood soup. One type had egg noodles and clear noodles. Another (mine) had just the clear noodles. A third was pork-free. The first two also came with small slices of ham. We were also provided with a large platter of bean sprouts (and maybe some shredded cabbage?) to put in the soup.
Ultimately, though my soup was good, I regretted my choice as the egg noodle+clear noodle variant also came with a deep-fried shrimp disk that mine lacked. John assured me that the shrimp disk isn't all that special, but how will I ever know for sure? How can one truly ever know anything? I'm clearly going to have to go back so I can try the deep-fried shrimp disk.
