Egg Roll Number 1

So my co-workers turned me on to this place and Boy am I grateful.

Service: You order at the counter, are given a number, and are brought your food.

Food:  Fantastic, cooked fresh, a mix of vietnamese and Chinese food.  This is really really outstanding weather you want the usual americanized Chinese dishes or something more authentic.  I went with one of the vietnamese dishes and i was not disappointed.

Cleanliness/Atmosphere:  Super clean, I've never spotted a dirty dish and the resturant is decorated quite modern.  Not like the usual discount strip mall Chinese place that is for sure.

This tidy newish building holds within its confines a rarity in Indy. This rarity has caused great men to bow before its might. A simple peasant dish, in reality. Ubiquitous in Vietnam, on most  street corners.

In Indy? Only a few choice spots.

This rarity I speak of is pho (forget that the Vietnamese stylization, not gonna even try to find out how to do it, but pronounced fuh). Luxurious rice noodles in a light broth glistening with the little globules of fat.

A pristine condiment dish overflowing with the bounty of sweet basil, crisp jalapeno, crunchy bean sprouts and lime accompanies this dish. Don't forget the little jar of crimson chili paste. Spoon a little in, a splash of hoisin sauce, then a little more chili paste.

The service is quick and friendly, the space is clean and welcoming. A lot of nice choices on the menu, but the pho selection keeps me coming back. Get it with well done beef only if you like. Or opt for the tripe, rare beef and meatball.

Top notch (on the Mid-west scale, of course) One star less for the over usage of MSG
