That's too bad. They make good sandwiches.

I've never had a Haitian sandwich.  Do you cut those with machetes?

Depends on how thin you slice 'em.  (Punchline to a very old joke)

Photo?  Yes, it's a great place that way, especially with a fresh layer of powdery snow resting on the branches of the Pines.  It's has nice features in the Summer, too.

Pho



You are right about the snow though.

Don't knock it until you try it.  Good pho is like crack.  You always come back for more.

The local VN restaurant.



I refer to it as the "Pho Quyen VN place".
