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.
The four-frame collage covers the table: fresh spring rolls with two dipping sauces, grilled pork over vermicelli with herbs, a plate of grilled meats, and cơm tấm with a glazed pork chop, broken rice, tomato and cucumber.
Pho Ca Dao is in the caption, but pho is not in the pictures — Roger went for the grilled-pork plates instead. That is a useful detail: the name on the sign is not always the dish worth ordering.
The quick critique
What stood out
- Cơm tấm with a glazed pork chop
- Bún thịt nướng with herbs
- Fresh spring rolls
Bottom line
Archive verdict
A grilled-pork lunch at a pho house — proof that the rice and vermicelli plates deserve attention too.
