Eat It: 7 Courses of Beef

Many are familiar with Vietnamese cuisine favorites like phở (noodle soup), bánh mì (spicy baguette sandwiches) and gỏi cuốn (spring rolls). But when I found out my dear friends had not partaken of my people's 7 Courses of Beef - I set out to immediately rectify the issue.

Course 1: pickled onions and beef carpaccio


Courses 2 - 3: raw slices of beef cooked in hot vinegar and then grilled over a hot plate (not pictured); wrapped in pickled veggies and rice paper


Course 4 - 6: ground beef rolls in different wrappings and meat on a stick (not pictured)


Course 7: beef rice soup


Bonus: 7 lovely ladies!

if you were on a desert island, would you take 3 courses of pizza or 7 courses of beef?

I want this -- I'm sold! -- you don't have to convince me that tastes good!

I used to live virtually next-door to a Vietnamese restaurant, back when I was a student in San Francisco and had almost no money. Now I've got a little money and there's not a Vietnamese restaurant in sight.

Really, I could weep.

It's been so long since I had Vietnamese food! And now I'm starving!!!!
That looked wonderful! (Maybe I can invest in a good cookbook since we don't have any vietnamese places around here? Do you know of any?)

No Vietnamese nearby in Turkey (Mary) or Indiana (Deidre). Hmm...I'm sensing a biz op!

And rappin, beef would win over pizza - I need to take the food of my people, not someone else's!
