| - Mama Loan's guide to feed a family of 6 for $40!
I've been battling this annoying cold that I got from my coworker since Tuesday, and you betcha that nothing treats a bad cold better than a hot/steamy bowl of Pho! And if you know me, I eat like a lil bird....small portion at one sitting, but many meals thru-out the day!;) And with my cold at its peak...Pho is a must for tonite! So, without further ado, allow me to introduce to you our dinner for a family of 6 for $40...seriously, a guaranteed yummilicious dinner
- $4.95 Grilled pork sandwich: Daddy David been craving for Banh mi
- $11.95 Banh canh: Ayden and London's fav dish, and it's a big portion, so it's enough for 2
- $5.50 (children's size) x 3 Combination Pho: for mama Loan, grandpa and grandma. We eat light at night, so this is the perfect portion for us. Even though it said it's children size, but it's plentiful, sometimes I couldn't even finish it...I called it the 'LIGHT' portion for those Carbs counters!
- $4.75 Che dessert: and of course, sick or not, I'm always in the mood for Che
**Total with tax included: $40.76**
I also loved it how they packaged the food, ready to eat no matter where you are...all the noodles in the bowls, just heat up the broth and pour them over! If you've ever ordered Pho at work, you would understand...they give you noodles and meats in a to-go box and broth in one of those tall, plastic containers. This makes it almost impossible to enjoy a good bowl of Pho at work.....but with this prepackaged bowls, I can now eat pho at work (or anywhere) and still enjoy it almost like I'm at home
So, I don't know about you guys, but if I were to cook dinner instead of eating out, I don't know if I could get it under $40 while still giving everyone a variety of choices. And not to mention, the time and water wasted cooking/washing the dishes afterward! WINNER DINNER!!!#flaminkitchen
