Not to fret, because literally steps away was Sapporo-Ya. The only ramen joint currently on my short list and it was open. Overall, the "plain" ramen was a pleasant experience, and a gre...

All the noodles you can shake a chopstick at. Friday, August 29, 2014. A Well-endowed Bun Bo Hue At O'Mai Cafe, Oh My! The recent opening of O'Mai Cafe. Stuck in my head on account of early Yelp reports that they were offering a Kobe beef banh mi. I was about to meet Andrea Nguyen at a book signing of her new Banh Mi Handbook, and it was a bit of intelligence I knew she would be interested in. The Yelpers had also mentioned a Bun Bo Hue at O'Mai, but I didn't give that a second thought. O'Mai Cafe, in th...

A random craving for the tomato and crab soup known as bun rieu. Or more precisely bún riêu cua. Took me to my New Best Friend in the Tenderloin, Tuyet Mai. I'm a relative newbie when it comes to bun rieu (usually distracted by the other bun, bun bo Hue. Having previously only had a sensationally crabby-eggy version at a pop-up by The Soup Junkie. Noodles of the thinnes...

Known as "Pork Spare Ribs Noodle Soup". The welcoming O'Farrell St. Thai/Lao bistro with the excellent draft beer and dratted Mason jars.
