Christmas
Late lunch at Dong Thap Noodles, one of the few pho places around to make their own noodles on site. The noodles are fresh and delicious, although the broths are a bit plain (regional differences, perhaps). Can't knock the pho, but something about the bun bo hue was definitely lacking compared to the best.
Squeezed in some last minute fun and shopping as well, hit ridiculous spectacle that is the Starbucks Reserve on Pike St. for pictures before heading over to the REI Flagship store. The former was packed with tourists, the latter was relatively quiet. Grabbed some groceries at PCC and dinner at Din Tai Fung too.
