We went to the Dentist in the morning and then to get the car serviced at the Toyota dealer. We knew that was going to take an hour so we went searching for foodies. For lunch we tried a “Vietnamese Vegetarian” restaurant. It was quite interesting. We had a language barrier so Paul ended up with the wrong thing but it turned out to be just fine.
Bo De Tinh Tam Chay is so serene it can transport you to a meditative state. The sound of trickling water flows through the dining room, a peaceful backing-track that blocks out the occasional clangs and whirs that erupt from the kitchen. A forest of fake bamboo surrounds the dining area, and Buddhist statues are placed throughout the room
The Westminster restaurant is not reserved about its Buddhism (the restaurant’s name derived from the sacred Bodhi tree, and Buddhist brochures and texts are strategically stationed near the doors), and with that comes a boundless menu of vegetarian Vietnamese cooking.
We even had vegetarian ham!
After returning home via Old Ranch were we visited a few folks and had a glass of wine, we headed for our Tea Party meeting in the evening. It was excellent as we had many young people in the audience this evening.
Ain't it the truth!
