Our good friend Thy at Wandering Spoon sends us this example of "Viet ebonics," which she spotted at 8th and Clement in San Francisco.

This just in from our friend Nik Martin in Mobile, Alabama:

I've been looking for a phở restaurant since the launch of this site, and today while thumbing through the yellow pages for something to eat, came across "Phở 88." BINGO. I call to make sure they are indeed a phở restaurant (they are) and if they are indeed open for my culinary curiosity (they are). I jet over, and after stopping outside to snap pics (which prompted the owner to rush out in a paranoid fashion to determine my reasons for doing so) I went in to make my purchase. The menu was entirely in an English printed Vietnamese dialect, but the descriptions were readable. I got a number 1, which had every type of beef available in it; flank steak, tripe, round steak, meatballs, and brisket. While waiting for my food, I ask what the "88" in their name means. Nothing, says the owner, he just liked the way it sounded. Good enough for me. After a few minutes, the owner returned with a very large sack of food and rang up $5.75. WOW, what a deal.
