It's More Than Just Eating

History recap:  So how do I know the Ravenous Couple?  The female counterpart of the couple is actually my old high school friend.  When we reconnected she told me that she was also a foodie and blogger when she found out that I was one as well.  When she linked me to her blog page I was blown away!  WOW talk about an incredible blog!  Her fiance, the webmaster & blogger, actually made a comment on this blog on a separate occasion not knowing that his fiance is my friend.  The rest was history!  Food bloggers do unite.  :)  They are an awesome couple with an immense love for Vietnamese cooking and cuisine.  They are definitely high up there in their own niche and I highly encourage everyone to check them out at http://ravenouscouple.blogspot.com/. 

So with that said... they invited me to their spring roll party!  Uhh... HELL YEAH I'm coming!  Upon arrival I was a bit shy because I didn't know most of the patrons so I didn't really document everything.  Just whatever that was at my table. 

They made ca nuong (fried cat fish) with nem nuong (grilled pork patty rolls), fresh assortment of greens, rice paper and 3 different types of dipping sauces.

We tore right into it and let me tell you... it was EXCELLENT!

The 3 different dipping sauces.  Peanut sauce, nuoc man cham and their very own concoction of Brodard's secret nem nuong sauce.

Ingredients to be able to recreate the famous Brodard's "nem nuong" goi cuon with nem nuong and the fried eggroll paper for that crunch.  So so gooood.

Voila!  Here's my big fat spring roll.  I had about 4 of these babies and loved the Ravenous Couple's version of the famous Brodard sauce but their peanut sauce was right on point with perfection.

Kim made the che Thai!  It was SO good and refreshing with the mixture of the jackfruit, cocunut jelly and other goodies!  It was a great way to end this ravenous meal!

Thanks for the invite, guys!  I was nice and full MINUS the guilt!!  Till next time!
