Pho Bac

Praise be the lords that have placed a Pho place a mere 3 blocks from my house. Thus even when it is pouring down rain, when thunder shakes the great city of Tacoma, or when my car gets stolen I still have access to cheap, wonderful soup. The dl on Pho Bac is this: any place that doesn't have a menu and simply uses a poster is bound to be good. This place has a poster and a very very small selection, here let me list them: brisket, raw beef, combo, chicken, tofu, shrimp. I have never seen anyone order the shrimp or tofu. Good, cheap and close is all it takes to make Pho Bac on 11th and MLK and winner for me. Besides they are getting to know me, now the wonderful ladies who work here no longer laugh at me when I stumble into the door at 6:55 begging for one last bowl for the day. Seeing a grown man cry over soup (not even spilt) is oh so very sad.

I'll be back soon with more updates including: Vien Dong possibly the best Pho in Tacoma (once I get more reliable internet... and a car.... bastards)
