This happened to me recently. Tried a Vietnamese place that is literally twice as expensive as my usual Vietnamese place, and it was much, much worse. Sad times. I’m also a total food snob though
A Vietnamese takeout place just opened near me and I gave it a shot. Went in to pick up the food and it was all white people and I knew it wasn’t going to work out. I was not disappointed in my negativity. It was like these people had watched a single TikTok video on Vietnamese cuisine and decided to open a restaurant. Probably just a front for laundering drug money.

I’ve got a pho place near me that just raised their prices. Instead of $10 for a five lb meal, I now pay $12. I’m okay with that.
