Vietnamese Pork Chop On Rice – The Regular and The Special


So we’re back to Pho Thai Son again where they have the best Vietnamese Pork Chops on Rice, well alright not exactly “again” – these two plates were ordered and eaten during our pho visit as well! In any case, there are two options displayed here, the Regular and the Special.
