Pho Cyclo

I met William Bloxom for lunch at Pho Cyclo Cafe. It's on 1st Ave S across from the SODO center/Starbucks headquarters/Sears building or whatever it's called these days. The proprietor has done a fabulous job with both the cuisine and the atmosphere. I had a bowl of rice noodles with shrimp cakes in a broth with sublime flavorings. I highly recommend the food here. Seattleites certainly lunch early compared to the London crowd. I arrived at 11:15 and the place was packed.

William suggested the Chilly Hilly bike ride. I made lame excuses about not being in proper shape, etc. etc. He mentioned the fact that he pulls his dog around the course. Right. I'm not that big a wuss. Gimme that registration form.
