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.
Demiurge bless the Asian dives!

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.

It’s crazy how much this happens, two super popular restaurants near me were busted for precisely this. Big police raids and everything, that even had semiautomatic rifles…

I used to live in Daytona and one day a shop opened up that sold nothing but Super-Whippers … $1 plastic whisks. They were never open and they were 200 ft. away from three dollars stores and a Publix, all of which sold plastic whisks. Maybe the whisk demand in coastal Florida is a lot greater than I imagined, but I think it’s more likely that this was a drug money laundry.
