The atmosphere was very quiet, it was nasty out so we were looking for some nice soup.
We shared the coconut soup which was delicious but very rich, not sure if I could have had a whole bowl alone. The tod mun was fantastic. It had great flavor and an equally stellar dipping sauce. The mason pork sliders were served with a basic Kim Chi cucumber in it. My wife was not a fan of that (she doesn't like Kim Chi), I thought they were very good, and added a refreshing taste to them.
Our entrees were the red curry and the king's pho. The curry was very fresh with lots of veggies in it, leaving me with a very satisfying but not 'heavy' feel.
The Pho... where to begin?
My wife and I are Pho lovers, and I like to think our standards for the dish are very high. Few places have gotten such high marks for their Pho as Aseoma did that night. We spoke with the owner, and apparently the recipe comes from a friend of his - now in dental school - who used to run a Pho shop in another town.
To finish off the night we sampled the key lime ice box pie. The pie filling was very tasty, but the crust was the star. It tasted similar to ginger snaps, and I enjoyed it greatly.
