| - With a bottle of wine in hand (hint: they're BYOB), hubs and I headed to Pho Kim for dinner on a recent Saturday night. Upon entering I noticed the sign on the door stating that they now serve breakfast?! Wouldn't be my first choice for breakfast but it might be worth trying out. When we entered, we were seated immediately seeing there were only about 3 other occupied tables. We sat directly in front of the sushi maker. Our waitress opened our bottle of wine and we ordered. I was really in the mood for hibachi so I ordered the hibachi chicken which came with a shrimp appetizer, soup and salad. Hubs went with the sushi. Within what seemed like seconds, my shrimp appetizer and soup were served. The shrimp consisted of large tempura fried shrimp. No sauce with it and not deveined. No thanks. I passed to hubs who was also not interested. My salad then arrived. Not much to say here either. Typical iceberg, cabbage, carrot mix with ginger dressing. Before I could get halfway through my salad, my entree was served garnished with a huge radish rose the size of half a cantalope. Poor hubs had nothing at this point. My hibachi was typical. Fried rice was good, veggies are soft, chicken was tasty. Everything was very average for me at this point. When hubs sushi was finally served, half way through my meal, he also felt that it was average. Not the best he has had and not the worst. The most redeeming quality of the meal was the fried ice cream. The crisp, warm breading around the cold ice cream was a perfect match. Topped with chocolate sauce and whipped cream for the perfect treat. Remember going to the fair as a child and getting a funnel cake with ice cream on top? It was like that except with chocolate as well. Yum. All in all, I might head back to Pho Kim but will probably not get the hibachi again.
