Hey all, turns out holmedown is coming through Chicago again, Pre-Covid we used to have an annual dinner during this time. So time to start it back up!!

Lots of delicious dishes, we'll all serve them family style so everyone gets a chance to sample lots of different choices.

Michelin Guide's review: "It’s a charming irony that an establishment whose name translates as “Vietnamese Restaurant” manages to stand out in a neighborhood that's packed to the brim with competing options. As soon as you enter, there’s a sense of easy hospitality—akin to that of being welcomed to a relative’s dining table—which is matched rather perfectly by their careful, homespun cooking.
Though this menu is voluminous, standbys like spring rolls and pho are a cut above, and those nostalgic for a taste of home food (or eager to try something new) will find themselves especially rewarded. Less common dishes, like the ca kho to (caramelized catfish cooked in a clay pot) and goi vit (duck salad with herbs, peanuts, and fried shallots), have no shortage of devotees."
