Needed a fix... and BAD!
People debate the merits of our ubiquitous local Vietnamese chain Pho Que Houng, but on a recent afternoon (and paying for a night out with the guys...) I was happy to have this new addition to our Addison neighborhood.
They even seem happier to take a to-go order over the phone than deal with you during the rush of lunch hour, as I found out.
Above: on a sit down lunch, Pho w/ Vietnamese Meatballs.
Back at the office, and out of the box (don't doddle...): the raw beef, noodles and fixings - I microwaved the broth, then poured over... added my own Shiracha and pickled jalapeñoes (always on hand)... this, along with my spring rolls... - I'm a happy man! - work drifts by as I sup on my soup... This combo is affectionately know among those "That Know" in the office as "A2-P15" - the texting of which elicits much rejoicing.

, it was paid for with Cold Hard Cash, and that's that.
While not the best Vietnamese on the planet, the outpost of this restaurant was the regular lunch place for a few of us at work, but it has recently been replaced by Xander's House. A bit of a further drive, but man its worth it.
