Southeast Bistro (Vietnamese - Not NJ - Philly)

Our monthly lunch with Karin and George took us to Philadelphia - Southeast Bistro, 1824 South Street, Philadelphia, PA 19146. You can't go wrong with anything here. So Tasty!

We pre-ordered (two days in advance) one of the seafood "boil" combos (#4 - 1 lb. crawfish, 1 lb. shrimp, 1 lb. clams, 2 lobster tail, 4 corn, 4 potatoes, 4 sausages) since we were having lunch, not dinner, with the "Crasian" spices (Asian Cajun). Spiced just right.

While waiting for the boil, we enjoyed the spicy Thai Chili Wings - just the right amount of crispy, spicy goodness.



The boil - amazing! We asked for toasted french baguettes to soak up the spicy sauce.





We were kinda full, but still tried the Lemongrass Pork Belly Banh Mi - flavorful goodness.


George and Jay (and Karin) enjoyed the fried cheesecake, with chocolate syrup, and dragonfruit (Dorian).



Mui, our server (and owner), was awesome and such a pleasure!


Wines enjoyed:





There was a variety of soft drinks available that Jay would love to try!

We enjoyed ourselves so much that we plan to come back in July, instead of waiting until August.
