I came to eat platter again and again. Indeed, my sister was right

🍜 An Nam: Boston’s Vietnamese Gem—Here’s What to Order (and What to Skip) This spot’s a keeper—with standout dishes that’ll have you coming back, plus a few misses to avoid. Let’s break it down: 🌟 Must-Order Dishes (No Brainer) Vermicelli Plate (Special): 5 stars, my top pick. A little bit of everything—fresh herbs, tender proteins, crisp veggies, and perfectly seasoned vermicelli. Generous portions, bold flavors, and zero weak links. Order this first. Sticky Rice Platter (Chicken Offal): 5 stars, even if the name’s off. Tender, well-cooked (no weird smells, promise) over sticky rice, with zesty sauces on the side. Savory, satisfying, and way better than I expected. Tom Yum Noodle: 4 stars. Refreshing, tangy, and spicy—but Sen Yai Thai’s version still edges it out. Still, worth ordering if you’re craving tom yum’s bright, citrusy kick. 😐 Solid, But Not Stellar Tom Spring Roll: 3.5 stars. Light, fresh, and not greasy—great for hot days when you’re not super hungry. Simple, but effective. Chicken Lollipop: 3.5 stars. Juicy on the inside, but a little dry on the edges. We’ve ordered it twice, so it’s decent—just not a standout. ❌ Skip These Pork Belly Claypot: 2 stars. Disappointing—overly salty, greasy, and lacking depth. The portion size was shocking, but not in a good way. Pho Beef Meatball: 3 stars. Average at best—broth is mild, meatballs are rubbery. There are better pho spots in town. 🍹 Drinks (Pricy at $8, but Worth It) Thai Tea: 4.5 stars. Creamy, sweet, and perfectly balanced—just annoyed they skimp on filling it up when you ask for less ice. Ice Cafe: 4 stars. Smooth, strong, and not too bitter—great with spicy food. Salted Lime Soda: 3.5 stars. Salty, tangy, and polarizing—love it if you’re into bold, briny flavors; skip it if not. 📍 Verdict An Nam’s specials and rice platters make it a must—just steer clear of the claypot and meatball pho. Come hungry, and thank me later. 📍 An Nam: Boston’s Vietnamese spot—order the vermicelli plate, no regrets. #BostonVietnamese #NoodleLovers #FoodieDosAndDonts
