2014-02-23 21:45:14 Ate here the other day: Excellent vegetarian (such a thing exists)Banh Mi and made to order spring roll. I have been looking for he Banh Mi for years. My guest had the Special Banh Mi and said it was "excellent." We will be back for vegetarian pho and Banh Mi of course. BYOB (corkage fee). —rxscabin
2014-02-24 10:29:15 How do you make 'vegetarian' pho when it's based on a beef broth?? —alex-c
2014-02-25 15:42:51 I do not know how they make it. However, while a meat-based or bone-based broth is more widely found, there is no requirement that it be beef or meat. —rxscabin
2014-03-10 11:21:51 Went back for the "vegetarian" pho and banh mi last week in the evening. While the pho did not have meat in it, it was made with beef bones, so I guess they can't have vegetarian pho recipes. I guess they require the beef broth. I have seen true vegetarian pho recipes in cookbooks. Oh well. Banh mi are not available at night (understandable if disappointing). The bun was quite good as were the vegetarian spring rolls. —rxscabin

2014-10-29 16:56:54 I was wondering how much longer these stoners would continue. Stopped by last month for dinner on a Saturday at 7:00, and they weren't there! Oh, well, they lasted nearly a year, which is about 6 months better than usual at this location.... —alex-c
