Pho Than Brothers [18]

"Tyler said the medium was big enough. He didn't know me." - Mike McEvoy

"There's a reason I have little brown dots on my shirt right now. It's because I ate soup for a meal. That is why I don't eat spaghetti on first dates." - Mike McEvoy

Mike actually enjoyed his visit to this pho restaurant. The meal itself took a long time to eat. There was prep with plum and hot sauces, lime, basil, etc... In the end it took him 40 minutes to finish. (This seems like an eternity for the man who can eat a Qudoba burrito in 39 second.) He is, however, full. He felt like he was eating healthy, which doesn't please Mike at all. (His heart is happy, but his tummy is pissed.) Mike got the 3 beef pho. It's all different kinds of beef, but God only knows what they were. The beef freaked Mike out at first, but then hunger took over him and he ate the meat. However shiny it may have been.

Mike definitely had to eat with a jacket on. (See the Flowers review for explanation.) They didn't refill his water at all. The restaurant was just there, nothing special. What it did have going for it was that it was $10 total for 2 guys to eat there and there was a lot of flavor too.
