soup


Soup. I like it. The best meal you can get under a tenner in Sydney could well be a bowl of soup. Like the pho from Yen's across the road from where I work in Redfern. Clear sweet broth, thick and slippery pale noodles, strips of beef, crunchy bean sprouts and a twist of mint and lemon. I always add some of the fiery birds eye chillis too. Where chicken soup is Jewish penicillin this is my Vietnamese salve. And it'll set me back less than eight bucks.
