If you like squid there is something on the menu called caramalized squid or something like that...it's spicy. It's unbelievable. Guaranteed you've never had squid like this before.

I thought it was you, but I didnt want to make a mistake haha Yea, the one good thing is when its sunny in the morning it melts very quickly because the driveway faces the east, but it needs to be sunny and close to the freezing point. Not cloudy and 10 degrees outside
The Fit, is pretty terrible for this driveway, and just in general  .....In the spring I think we'll put it for sale, and get my wife a wrangler also. Having the ability to put a vehicle in 4 LOW helps a lot for this driveway.

Not just by my own tastes, but the tastes of 2nd generation Vietnamese Americans, yes. But you have to get there early sat for spicy beef. They usually sell out by 11. Sunday is chicken, and same story. Out by 11. Keep in mind that Pho is a breakfast food in Vietnamese cusine. Also be forewarned that 501 serves one thing. Beef pho. (Spicy beef And chicken are on the menu sat and Sunday respectively). They will add shrimp to the beef pho. They also have all sorts of weird peppers and meat looking things that the Vietnamese customers order off their secret Menu. But the dish doesn't change. They do offer spring rolls as well. My suggestion for you djc, venture in during normal hours. Large beef, iced coffee (this is important), ask for extra lime slices, some fish sauce, and birdshead peppers, and water. When the bowl comes, squeeze lime into bowl (toss rind in bowl), fish sauce (don't smell it, this is important) break the peppers up and add to bowl (don't pick your nose for remainder of day), skip the basil, toss the sprouts on top, add siracha and go to town. Take the little dish on the side and add that purple hoisin sauce and siracha to that. When you get to a strip of beef, fish it out and run it through the hoisin/siracha dip. When the sweat beads start rolling, reach for the iced coffee, it's magical. You will leave feeling like Jesus on cocaine. I'm there at least once a week. They hooked me up this Sunday after closing hours and made sure I had the last bowl of the day. But I will assure you that I won't be there at the same time as you. And if I do happen to spot you, I promise I won't make it awkward.  . I'll just blend in with the Pratt Rats as best as a guy wearing Allen Edmonds can do.

I must have just missed you, I was there from 12:00 to 12:45. First I'd like to thank you guys for the recommendation. MC1974 the raw beef and siracha was great. Typhoid, great call on both the iced coffee and hoisin sauce, both of which I never would have thought of. I really liked the place and will deffinitely be back to try spicy beef soup, spring rolls and ox tail. That said I think that the broth at Pho Boston was better, was a little richer tasting. Also I like the tendon and tripe in with my beef, which I didn't see at 501 (although I didn't ask). Great lunch, can't wait to go back!  |

Tastes like the center of a rare hamburger lol. It is just a very clean and light beef flavor. The best part of it is temperature and texture. I like the cool beef with the hot (spicy) Chile sauce. Hot (spicy) and hot (temperature) can be overwhelming sometimes. I think it let's you taste more when the hot temperature isn't a factor. I also like raw beef with not spicy things too, the texture is smoother and softer. People get all freaked out, but if it's fresh you won't get sick.
ETA: Raw diced beef with capers, red onion, good olive oil and a raw egg yolk all mixed up is absolutely fantastic! |

ETA: Raw diced beef with capers, red onion, good olive oil and a raw egg yolk all mixed up is absolutely fantastic! Wait a minute. I thought you guys were getting the sidedish of beef raw to add to the hot soup and slowly cook it. Raw? In East Hartford? No f-ing way.
But I'm still going this weekend. Max Amore in Glastonbury has a fantastic raw beef appetizer. Definitely not East Hartford! Carpaccio . It's frigging delicious . I had it about a month ago. Fresh parmesan with arugula . I could eat a bucket of that shit |

The Fit, is pretty terrible for this driveway, and just in general .....In the spring I think we'll put it for sale, and get my wife a wrangler also. Having the ability to put a vehicle in 4 LOW helps a lot for this driveway.Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By bending_rodriguez:

What made you buy the Fit? Do you work for Ringling Bros. and get a discount? You can buy a real car that gets better fuel economy. Aside from Lexus and Acura the road noise is deafening in most Jap cars. Although if you drive a Jeep Wrangler then I guess the Honda sounds quiet.

First I'd like to thank you guys for the recommendation. MC1974 the raw beef and siracha was great. Typhoid, great call on both the iced coffee and hoisin sauce, both of which I never would have thought of. I really liked the place and will deffinitely be back to try spicy beef soup, spring rolls and ox tail. That said I think that the broth at Pho Boston was better, was a little richer tasting. Also I like the tendon and tripe in with my beef, which I didn't see at 501 (although I didn't ask). Great lunch, can't wait to go back! http://i1310.photobucket.com/albums/s658/Johnsmyname/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150210_174541_zps6c389bf5.jpg Damn I think a trip to pho boston is in order for tomorrow.
Le's is another Vietnamese place just north of 501 a mile or so on Main St in East Hartford. They feature a full menu. I suggest the Bun, which is vermicelli served cold with hot grilled beef and chopped spring rolls served over it with veggies. The woman who runs it is a saint and will generally share some house hot sauce, offer a free appetizer, cold drink, and always cake at the end of the meal. Oh yeah, Patsy Cline playing on the stereo the entire time. Neat atmosphere. Makes you feel like a guest in their home.
