Lunch Club – Tramy’s Vietnamese Pork Chops – FINALLY!

What can I say? Well, it was worth the wait!

For lunch today Tramy served Vietnamese style pork chops with the lot! FINALLY! I’ve been hanging for it since Tramy promised to prepare when we launched Lunch Club.

We’ve finally made full use of our new rice cooker (from David Jones, currently on special @ $29.95). The scent of cooking jasmine rice wafted all over our level. No one complained. Some wanted a piece of the action.

Tramy went out of her way to make the meal authentic. She brought all the necessary condiments. We’ve got mo hanh (cooked spring onion/garlic), home made nuoc mam (some say nuoc nam, or nuoc cham, whatever…it was yummy!), and bi (pork skin salad). Vietnamese pork chop is normally served with fried egg. Of course, in the spirit of authenticity, Tramy has brought fresh eggs which we fried in the office (there’s nothing worse than hour’s old fried egg!) using our versatile sandwich press.
