Ah, OK, I've had star fruit.
Pho comes with a cream puff because the owner's wife likes to make them, or something? Because there's a French colonial influence on Vietnam and their cooking? Because it's DELICIOUS???
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Interesting. As far as I know, pho in this city does not come with cream puffs.

Pho is one of the things I like to get in New Orleans. Because while there is plenty of fine pho all over, Pho Tau Bay makes my favoritest.

Huh.
So, Seattle, pho comes often with cream puffs because we have SO MUCH DAMN PHO? and they have to resort to gifts-with-purchase?
Meara, which one did you go to? I love the one on the Ave.

We have a pretty substantial Vietnamese population here. There's a whole section of downtown with alternate Vietnamese names on the street signs.

This one, I believe. Conveniently the closest to me. But I'm curious about the other places along Broadway

I am intrigued by the concept of cream puff with pho, though knowing how full I am after pho I doubt I could actually eat and enjoy a cream puff at that point.

Now tagless for your comfort.
My friends took me to a Pho restaurant in Cleveland. It was TASTY GOOD.
Sadly, we had no cream puffs. But we stopped in at Whole Foods for lavender chocolates afterward.
WF is something I really miss having access to. And TJ's.

Ah, but -t, they give you the cream puff FIRST! How ingenious!
