saturday...
we drove almost 1 1/2 hours to check out a vietnamese restaurant,
gingergrass.
and man!
it was worth the drive!
i love the location, the atmosphere, the service and most of all the food.

| appetizer: fresh summer rolls |
i had the organic tofu vermicelli noodle bowl with the brown noodles.
and omigosh!
so yumm-o!
 |
| ingenious way of serving ice cold water: in a wine bottle |
 |
| beautiful presentation.... |
 |
| but not that beautiful...coz i ate that shit up! |
a definite "come-back to eat again place."
hubby had the chicken pho and ashley had the vietnamese chicken salad.
then something we didn't plan on doing the
LA Zoo...
 |
| ashley's main attraction...the zebras... |
 |
| hot weather called for some icy cold cherry icee for me...aaah that hit the spot! |
 |
| finally taking a nap after her cranky episode... |
 |
| some tired feet about to go home... |
it was hot but fun...
next time we go may be winter time with maiya (she was in WA at the time) to avoid the heat.
and i would not mind that one bit.
