SRM had the squid pepper rice (AU$9.45 – rice dish prices have gone up!). He said it was only so-so this time.

For the sake of a new photo, I tried a dish I’ve never had before – the banh canh noodle soup (AU$8.95), described on the menu as “Vietnamese fresh noodles in soup with chicken and seafood”. It was OK – lots of chicken, small prawns and squid, with a few thin slices of fish cake, in the usual broth, with bean sprouts hidden at the bottom. I’d never eaten this variety of noodles before – I definitely prefer thinner noodles. But the perpetual-child-gross-out part of me secretly loved the thought of eating “earthworms”. :)

On Friday I had chilli chicken and rice (AU$9.45), takeaway. It was good, but yeah, I think I’ve reached my Han’s limit, at least for a while.
