Sunday Chicken Roast Dinner - Sunday, May 11, 2014

Dish of the day: Sunday Chicken Roast Dinner

Where it’s found: The Spotted Cow (111 Bui Vien, Pham Ngu Lao - District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam)

Breaking it down: Roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, meaty mushroom gravy with onions, steamed veggies (broccoli, carrot and green beans), baked thick-cut fries (large hash browns) and chicken meat balls.



Happy Mother’s Day! I got to Skype call my mum back home, which was really nice.  Then at night, I toasted a drink for her from the other side of the world. Cheers to the best mum ever. I love you and miss you – you mean everything to me <3

Because Patrick and I wanted to go watch the final games in the Premier League, we chose The Spotted Cow in D1’s backpacker’s area. Sunday nights there feature a big Sunday (Chicken) Roast Dinner, so we opted for that. British sport, British food, right? And sure, it’s heavy on the carbs, especially with its assortment of 3 types of potatoes (a bit much?), but it was incredibly satisfying. After eating, we finished watching the game, enjoying gin and tonic, a Bloody Mary and an extra special treat, British cider!
