traffic, Muni, and this new bout of allergies... "delay" is the story of my life!
So back to what I did on WEDNESDAY... at work, Bunny and Speedy raved about the papaya salad at
Perilla on Mission Street:
|
papaya salad with poached beef. Also has basil, carrots, peanuts, little fried shallots,
and of course, papaya (the white stuff that looks like short noodles) |
|
mix with tangy nuoc mam dressing and enjoy! |
I was surprised by the papaya... not that it was there (after all, it is a papaya salad) but by how well it replaced noodles. I guess I'm stuck on noodles right now... not only was the papaya a great alternative, but the beef was very tender and the fried shallots (fancy onions) made everything seem much more expensive than it was. Top notch lunch food for less than $10!
Just be sure to eat your food ASAP... if you let it sit for a bit while you go to the ATM, the papaya loses its crunch power.
