Pho Pho Express has a gateway drug. After a few visits for a nice hot bowl of Pho, the owner gave me a sample of his new offering--a lemon chicken wing appetizer. They were extremely tasty, a lemony, crisp skin laced with spiced salt. Delicious.
Soon I was ordering the wings and Pho as a regular. I walked in the other night and a couple of the employees greeted me with "you want wings?". That was the night that I asked the owner if I could just get a larger order of the appetizer wings. He agreed, but since this was just a holdover snack, i skipped the soup.
So I went from a two wing sample to an oversized order as a light main course. If I could figure out how to mainline these wings...
Don't think that they are a one trick pony. The soups are always excellent and filling, and I especially enjoy the spicy thai noodle soup. Ask for it mild or let them crank it up to a level that will peel paint, it is still flavourful. For under $10 you can do some serious damage to your hunger!
