Rolld.. Vietnamese street food.



Took a quick pic of the exotic beauty here while having lunch in Rolld downstairs from Aimee's office in 140 William last week. Incredible Vietnamese style street food.. Aimee and I had the Goi Vietnamese salad both healthy and scrumptious, leaving us feeling virtuously satisfied :) Haven't been able to find out who the artist is, should have asked but didn't, have a feeling we will be back to find out.. nothing to do with the food :) Hope you had or are still having a great weekend, happy Monday, take care and stay safe...

  1. I find that painting very attractive. When teaching American history, every year I invited Vietnam vets to visit my class and talk about the war. It was a great experience for the kids...as the vets came in full uniform and brought various artifacts from Vietnam (no weapons, though!). One of the things I remember most clearly is that they said in those days cats were considered a delicious treat. One of the soldiers told me that if you saw a Mama-San running down the street with a machete, she was doubtless chasing a cat for dinner. I wonder if cats are still eaten over there?

  2. Beautiful mural. I miss the Vietnamese food I used to get at work and at a Vietnamese restaurant in Roanoke, Virginia.

  3. Such lovely art to accompany dining!! Vienamese restaurants here are getting better and better but there seems to be a preference for Thai food.

  8. Never had Vietnamese food. If all works out right next weekend I will be in Medford Oregon and maybe I will get chance to try some new foods.

  16. Love it! She does have kind of a condescending look about here though.
    Okay, this settles my quandary. I'm going out for Pho tonight!
