Every Vietnamese Place Should Serve a “King Way Combo”
Carson is a bit too far too travel for a weekday lunch, but if I found myself down there over the weekend (maybe on a trip to IKEA?) I’d definitely go to Pho King Way for lunch. Why? The King Way Combo. I’m a big fan of bun, and they do an everything but the kitchen sink version that leaves you wanting nothing. Beef, pork, chicken, shrimp *and* egg roll served on top of vermicelli noodles with veggies and fish sauce for $8.95. Prefer pho? They do it with the soup too, giving you steak, brisket, flank, fatty brisket, tendon, tripe, and meatballs all for $8.45. Best Vietnamese food of all time? Hardly. And $9 isn’t exactly cheap for the South Bay. But I love a place that doesn’t force you to choose between all the meats they offer.
Anybody know a place like this a bit closer to home? The few versions I’ve tried are a bit lacking.
