| - Sweet basil, this place is good!! :-)
I think that's going to be my new "catch phrase"..."Sweet Basil", etc.:)
If I want to add emphasis, I can insert an adjective..."Sweet Aromatic Basil", etc.:)
What do you think?...No?...OK:)
But, Maxim still has about the best Vietnamese food around:)
After a workout this morning (to nullify the effects of the UYE at Haus Murphy's last night) I met a bunch of my attorney buddies for a sort of healthy lunch today (BTW, I realize, that sounds like an oxymoron..."attorney buddies", not "healthy lunch":)
They are a jolly crew...always laughing and giggling about the misery visited upon the rest of society by the legal profession and its handmaidens, health care and insurance:)
We laughed and talked and ate, ate and laughed...soon, very soon, karma will pay a visit, but for now, they are jolly and entertaining lunch companions (not to mention invaluable resources for that inevitable day when my own legal misery strikes-:)
Maxim is more reliable than an attorneys billing logs (and significantly more tasty and less expensive:)
I generally have #20, the rare beef pho with rice noodles, and a chicken spring roll...hearty broth, real beef (not bits and pieces:) and plenty of it:)
Add your own heat (and there are plenty of options for that) as well as sprouts, basil, peppers, etc., and you've engineered a pretty decent lunch...that doesn't cause retox...probably:)
The service is always good here (insert legal joke about "service" here)...and to top it off, the whole crew at Maxim are just very nice people...I think they are mostly family and they treat all of their customers great!...We were greeted with a smile and a smile and wave when we left:-)
Sweet Basil, that's good food:-)
