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.
A bowl of wide rice noodles and beef in clear broth with lettuce and chopsticks, a steel caddy of chili and pickled condiments, and the cook working knives and pots at the stall.
The best part of the photo is the bottom frame — the cook mid-prep in a tiny, crowded stall. Roadside noodle soup is the everyday meal of Southeast Asia, and Roger’s damn tasty is the only review it needs.
