I was hungry asf.

But damn, got some white rice, beef, and some veggies (cucumber and radish) all with that signature sauce that Vietnamese restaurants usually have (I'm not sure what it's called).

And by the Vietnamese gods, it was amazing.

Just like eating it at the restaurant itself; still nice and warm (but then again, the restaurant was nearby my area).

Came in a white plastic container or whatever material you call it.

Oh God, I look back fondly on that meal I had almost an hour ago today.

I was soooooooooooo hungry too and now I'm not.

How is it that you can feel horrible when you're hungry (physically and emotionally) and then feel content and all is right with the world after having eaten?

Dunno... Just don't know...

Anyway, how you all doing? And what did you all eat today (so far)?

Nuoc Cham (im not putting the accents in there, pronounced sorta like Nook Chum), basically a combination of fish sauce, sugar, lime and thai chilis. the litteral translation would be dipping water(sauce). a lot of vietnamese foods have a (general food family) (specific name or word) to name food, so a lot of sauces or drinks will start with nuoc (water), and a lot of bread or noodle dishes start banh (bread)

That's the one!

God, I should make this Nuoc Cham at home too...
