Pho Barclay (Vietnamese)

We wanted to visit the place where Emerald Fish used to be, so we visited Pho Barclay in Cherry Hill early this evening. Delicious food, but not enough to make the trip, when Pho Xinh is so close.

Jay had a honeydew smoothie - delicious!

We shared appetizers:
Vietnamese Chicken Spring Rolls (2 orders)



Summer Rolls (Shrimps)



Grilled Beef in Grape Leaves - smoky beef, similar to Little Saigon's in Upper Darby...




We still had room left, so Ken order the grilled pork chop (2) with rice. Two nice-sized pork chops with rice. Ken preferred this version.

Jay ordered the hot and sour seafood pho, which came with shrimp, scungilli, and fish balls. Delicious, especially with the added fish sauce, bean sprouts and basil. She ordered the small and barely finished.

If we're in the area, we'll stop by; but we won't make a special trip, only because one equally as good is closer to home.

Taste of Evesham

With apologies to Vip and Angie, we neglected to mention that last year's Taste of Evesham event was FANTASTIC!

So went went back to the 2nd annual Taste of Evesham on Sunday, May 23, 2010. For $15 each, we had all the food and drink (alcohol included) that we could handle. The rain only lasted about 15 minutes, not enough to damper the spirits of those in attendance. Everyone was wonderful; food was delicious; drinks abounded. Definitely will return next year!
