NUN FRAUD...GO FIGURE

A long time ago, I quite thinking that I'd seen it all in this industry. Have a look at the link below. I've never heard of Nun Fraud before...much less nuns having half a million dollars to be defrauded out of. Read About Nun Fraud Here

GOOD FOOD, GREAT PRICE-WaBa TERIYAKI

Every now and again, you stumble across a good place to eat. At lunch today, our office manager, Tony Sevilla ,and I did some stumbling in Rancho Cucamonga. We thought we were walking into a new sushi place, but found had we read all the way to the bottom of the sign, we would have found WaBa Teriyaki. Nowhere in that is sushi mentioned. When we stopped to think about it, that made sense because they don't serve sushi. Luckily, they do serve some mean teriyaki.




9670 Haven #104
Rancho Cucamonga,CA
909-945-3241

The restaurant was very clean, open with a lot of light, and both indoor/outdoor seating. Because it's located in the middle of a good sized professional center, people watching goes well with either a teriyaki bowl or plate.That's a good thing, because that's all they serve. No need for anything else either. It's THAT kind of good. Going with the adage"No one likes to eat in an empty restaurant", there were a LOT of happy people. The food is served quickly, it's low in fat, and more food that $5-$7 should ever allow.

The only drawback is if you aren't stumbling,and actually want to find the place. You won't see it off of either 4th Street or Haven. It's tucked around the back of the N.W. corner of that intersection.

Sunday morning..a hot cup of coffee..just my dogs and I on a walk. Now both my dogs and I are in pretty decent shape so running out of breath doesn't normally happen. Well, it does to my Springer, Sleepy. But that's after I toss him the Frisbee. Personally ,I'm not about to chase a Frisbee.But, as I round the corner from my house, THIS is what took my breath away:

PHO HA IN RANCHO CUCAMONGA-Not Your Grandmother's Soup

OK, you're at the Foothill Village Shopping Center,on the Southeast corner of Foothill/Hellman, in Rancho Cucamonga. Oh, and you're hungry.



Do you...?



A) Go to Chuck E. Cheese and pay wayyyy too much for really bad food, or...



B) Look over your shoulder and find this ?

Pho Ha-Rancho Cucamonga
9319 Foothill Blvd. #C
Rancho Cucamonga,CA
909-980-7703
Read Yelp Review Here

Trust me when I tell you to leave all the petulant children, inattentive parents and annoying oversized rat, and run as fast as you can to the restaurant with the funny looking squiggly line over the "O" in Pho Ha(prounounce Fa Ha, or Fu Ha..I'm still not totally sure).

So now that I've saved you from the drudgery of The Cheese, let me tell you what Pho Ha is.
What it is NOT is not your grandmother's soup restaurant, unless your grandmother is Vietnamese. In which case, I'd like to be invited the next time she makes soup. What it is, is a very healthy beef or pork based soup. It is served piping hot with various thinly sliced pieces of meat. and noodles already in the soup. With it comes a plate of bean sprouts, lemon wedges and fresh mint sprigs. To it, you can add various sauces that are already bottled on your table.

In addition to the soups, there are a wide variety of other very tasty Vietnamese salads, spring rolls, sea foods, and Asian drinks you may not have tired, but should. All of them are very reasonably priced.

'A couple of warning for you. If you go on a weekend, plan on waiting. The place is generally packed and loud. It's not a place to take your prom date. But if you like very good, reasonably priced, ethnic food, by all means,go.
