So happy to have you back twice this year! Glad that you miss the parents almost as much as the produce. Thank you for sharing your experience! My friend asked when you're coming back so he could host another dinner. Love you always, Mom.
This was such a good read! My stomach even made an inelegant noise when I saw the photos of the bún bò hu. But also, I love that you can have these kinds of adventures and have food be an experience that brings people together. You do that so well.
I used to spend some time in SF for work and there are two places I always return: JT Restaurant, a small Filipino place where the owner will take a break from watching their soaps to make you a heaping plate of whatever is on the menu that day, and the Pinball Museum in Alameda where you can pay like $20 and play alllllll day (which I did, only taking small breaks for food).

That was such a fun little adventure!
