There are times when a nice bowl of Vietnamese Pho noodles in soup would sure hit the spot.
The place would have to have good air conditioning though.

There aren't any Dominican Businesses or Restaurants, from say, Santiago or SD you'd like to see on the North Coast?

I miss the large variety of ethnic restaurants you find in places like Boston. In cities where there are large ethnic communities these restaurants have to have good food reasonably priced to survive.

The ethnic communities here aren't large enough to support multiple competitive restaurants.
