Goi Cuon Tom Thit / Summer Rolls ($4) - With shrimp and pork. Served with a peanut dipping sauce. Dave says: The rolls were pretty standard. I normally don’t like it when they use shredded lettuce instead of sprouts, but it wasn’t bad. My only complaint was that some parts of the wrap were hard. I have a suspicion that the rolls are premade and when they sit around, the wrapping dries and hardens up, especially around the ends.
Minh Ky Mi Gia
Submitted by lynn on Fri, 01/02/2009 - 11:05am.After I saw that DELICIOUS looking bowl of egg noodles from the other Minh Ky Mi Gia review, I have had a craving for noodles ever since. And I was finally satisfied with a visit on Saturday.
I ordered the Combination Wonton Egg Noodles Soup (4.95) and I was very happy with it. There were healthy greens like bok choy in the soup. The wontons were yummy with a piece of shrimp meat inside. I really liked the xa xiu (pork), which was completely meat rather than part fat. The only complaint was that the chicken was dry but I attribute that to being breast meat.
Phuong Trang
Submitted by dennis on Thu, 01/01/2009 - 10:26pm.Phuong Trang has been in Convoy for as long as I can remember. I’ve been going there since I was a kid and always had a pleasant experience with my family. This time, Lynn’s mom was in town and so my mom wanted to bring her here to eat, at our family’s favorite restaurant (when I say family, I do not include myself because I have no favorite restaurant ^_^).
Pho Hoa

In my experience, the food at Pho Hoa are always delivered within minutes of their order. I don’t think I have ever waited for more than three minutes at the table. Sometimes when I order a bowl of Pho, they bring it out within one minute! Oh my.
Tan Ky Mi Gia
Submitted by dennis on Thu, 01/01/2009 - 6:08pm.After having a business brunch with Hai, we decided to actually go and eat something somewhere else. We originally decided to goto the banh mi shop near Big Lots but changed our minds and ate at Tan Ky Mi Gia instead.
Much to my suprise, the noodle menu did not offer fried shrimp! I was very saddened…
