What is your average cost per bowl? I was planning on making pho one night at home last week but decided it was cheaper (and likely better) for me to just go out. By the time you have bought enough meat / bones to make the broth at home and garnish your soup you are way over the price of simply going out for it. Or at least that is what I told myself to justify going out for dinner.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Are you buying the fresh packaged one? Those are the best. Not fresh like freshly made, but not the dried dehydrated one.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I can always find good ones at T & T. But you might need to hit up the Vietnamese specific groceries stores like Lucky 97 or Hiep Hoa on 17th.

Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.
Initial investment is high because you are buying things in 'bulk' like a bag of star anise (30+ pieces), a full bottle of fish sauce, etc.. Otherwise it's relatively cheap. The trick is to buy them in China town and not at superstore. I was looking last night, Superstore sells Beef Bone for $8.90/kg, whereas China town was like $1.69/lb. Here's a VERY rough cost estimate on 1 pot of Instant Pot PhoThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Beef Bone: ~$4
Ox Tail: ~$6 (so $$$)
Beef Brisket: $5 (Also $$$)
Noddles: $1.89/bag - good for 4 portions
Star Anise: ~$0.75
Coriander seeds: ~$0.5
Onion: ~$1
Ginger: $0.50
Garlic: $0.25
Cinnamon: ~$0.40
Fish Sauce: ~$0.75 (1/5 of a bottle)
Rock Sugar: ~$0.25 (10% of the box)
Green onion, bean sprouts, basil: $1.50
I don't remember what else, but this works out to be VERY approximately $22. It made 4 full size bowl.. so $5.5 per bowl. Not dirt cheap... but way cheaper than going out and I would argue Ox tail and beef brisket is more quality or $$ than just raw beef slices.
Wooo! Finally found a Canadian distributor in stock at a reasonable price.
2 UniFi in wall HD access points!
Fast wifi with a 4 port switch along the bottom.

Best price was definitely CDW, 233 CAD.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I’m looking forward to it. Essentially just replaces a wall Ethernet jack but gives you wifi and 4 port switch with POE passthrough to boot.
UFO’s have a place, these just seem much better for a home retrofit.

I like to joke because now I have a US-8 behind each TV and also my computer. This would have combined my access point and switch all into one.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I’m looking forward to them for sure. My office if all places is a wifi dead zone ( I just wire in to mitigate but I don’t always feel like on my laptop) so one of these will be perfect.

The bomb. Have noted much better longevity vs other sprays. Exactly what I need for these wet YVR winters.
Hoping to finalize a much bigger purchase this week, will keep yall posted, very excited.
I dragged this POS home last night. A 92 GMC 2500. The plan is to pull the 454 and 4L80 overdrive transmission out, put them into my 81 GMC, and then throw the rest of the truck in the garbage. I was hoping the body was in decent shape but it's not, and the interior is in pretty tough shape too so there won't be much left once I get what I need out of it. It runs and drives great though. I had a hell of a time finding a 1991-2000 2500 rear wheel drive with a 454, but that's the combo I needed.

Go to Hiep Hoa on 17th Ave SE. Get the pink package noodles in the tub near the back of the store by the herbs. That's the only stuff we buy.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
2008 Kodiak scamper. I've been browsing kijiji for a few months for a trailer and came across a trailer that fit our needs and was too good of a deal to pass up. 21ft + rear slide with queen bed, 2 x double sized bunks.
Now I have to sell my tent trailer and bring on spring !
Nice, post a few more details in the rv camping thread.
