Joined a friend on his recommendation for the famous Pho Thit Bo Sate(#30). I'm a big fan of Viet food and I have never heard of anyone else serving this dish in Winnipeg. An incredibly rich, complex and satisfying Pho.

Love the simplicity of the decor and the service is minimalist but if you're used to this it's not a big deal....

Finally one of our group managed to convince someone and we stayed. Probably $140 in sales that they gained, must be nice to be so rich you send away patrons when your restaurant is empty! I had Chow Mein everyone else had soup,...
