my secret restaurant



Here's what I love about this Vietnamese/Chinese
place: You know it's a good sign when every time
you're there, you're invariably the only Caucasian
in the joint.  There IS a menu, but you can also
just describe what you want and they'll make it
for you.  (And no—call me a big meanie, but I'm not
telling you the name of this place. Maybe later.)

  1. Great food porn, Alexa! Those greens and noodles are tantalizing.

  2. LOL, USelaine!

    Looks very healthy, too, Alexa. Good for you. {No pooches on the menu of this Vietnamese establishment, I hope.}

  5. Yes, I agree with everyone: Yummy!

    What is the small dish of chili sauce for?

    Those noodles with rapini, bean sprouts, and a little animal protein really says something to me.

  6. No, guys—no pooches, for a change (although I knew I could count on Shell and TG to bring it up)!

    Bibi -- sure, I'll take you here (you too, Elaine—come to NY in June & we can all go together). You're not too picky about cleanliness, I hope, or not having to share your table with random strangers.

    Lili -- Oh, okay! Here it is. (I'd just better not find the place full of blondes next time I go there!)

  7. BTW, TG -- the red chili stuff is NOT for wusses. Just a drop too much and you'll be breathing fire.

  8. Don't you just love having a secret restaurant?
    I have one too and mine is really hidden and undiscovered by the crowds so I can always get a table hehehe

  9. Alexa, you wouldn't have to worry about a lot of blondes invading the place if they found out that it was really located down here. (Which it isn't)

  10. But you WILL tell the Italian club, right?

  11. Take a gander at the menu on the off chance that you can before you reserve your spot. Numerous eateries have their menu online with the goal that you can figure out the kind of nourishment and eatery that you are thinking about. better maid donuts
