For lunch we had Pho at the Pho Noodle House in Orem. It was so good. Plus, it was cheap. This enomous bowl was $7 and my husband and I could have shared.
So fun too - you get to put in what you like (of course for me that means everything - basil, jalapeno, both sauces, cilantro, lime...)
Then for dinner I had Mole at the Red Iguana. I had never had mole before. My husband served a mission for our church in Los Angeles speaking spanish. So a lot of the Latins gave him mole. He said everyone's is a little different. So I asked the waiter if I could try the sauce. I was expecting one sauce - there were at least 6 on the plate. All were delicious and so different. He let me do half and half - Amarillo (the spiciest - proud?) and negro (one of the sweeter, more traditional chocolate.
This was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. My nose did run, but oh, I loved every bite.

Happy Belated! Looks like you ate well! :)
The Red Iguana is the BEST! It's a fave for us here at the hive. Glad you went and hope you enjoyed. Do you watch Food Network (stupid questions I'm sure) Guy Fieri went to the Red Iguana with his Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. He loved it. Also, have you tried Forage? It is supposed to be excellent (kind of spendy) but excellent. I'm a closet foodie. My husband is the real cook, but we LOVe good food!
Happy Birthday! :)
