The presentation doesn't look good, but it's definitely GOOD!
This is a very labor intensive kind of noodle soup to make. The bamboo shoots need to be boiled several times, and changing the water in between.
With a little bit of fried garlic, a little bit of fried ginger, the zesty taste of a squeezed lime and tasty wholesome broth together, plus fresh scallions, herbs and hot sauce make this a very excellent vegetarian noodle dish!
With soft tofus hiding among large al-dente strands of noodles, and tender, perfectly cooked bamboo shoots, this is the bowl to dig in. And when you're done, you can't helped it, but have to go back for more.
Am I imagining too much??
