Looking back
The SD Foodie take
Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.
This bowl has the visual markers of a satisfying red-braised beef noodle soup: a dark broth, substantial pieces of beef, leafy greens and a tangle of noodles underneath.
The composition is rustic and direct rather than polished. That works for the dish, which succeeds through depth, tenderness and warmth; the photograph suggests comfort first, with the original caption supplying an unambiguous vote of approval.
