They weren't kidding when they said best pho ga!  The crispy skin chicken leg is the star of the dish.  Though the clear chicken soup was tasty and flavorful at first, I did get a sliiiight msg buzz afterwards.

I love Thai Son because they have the best rice platters of all the places I've tried thus far.  And though their pho is good, I keep coming back for their variation of Hu Tieu Bo Kho (thin rice noodle with beef brisket in special vietnames stew).…More »
