I was having one of those Mondays, my seasonal allergy was acting up, work was crazy and nothing was going my way…. I was uber cranky.  I decided to go for a walk for lunch and was even more annoyed at all the fast food options I kept coming across (I’m telling you there was no pleasing me that day).  And then I found BOI, and my life was changed forever.

From their many options of sandwiches, soups, rice bowls, my friend and I finalized on the Broth Noodle Soups.  We decided to make it to go.  They packed the noodles and protein in one container and the broth in another… again, I was super pleased (I hate soggy noodles)!

My friend had the Spicy Shrimp Broth Noodle Soup and Boi was it spicy **pun intended 🙂  This Noodle Soup was perfection.

It had the perfect balance of spice, tang and sweetness from the tamarind and garlic.  They did not skimp on the shrimp either and let’s not forget about the bok choy, your daily serving of vegetables 🙂

I opted for the Lemongrass Chicken Noodle Soup.  It came with fried shallots (I can’t tell you how much I love fried shallots 🙂 ) and bok choy.  This soup is the cure for every sickness.

For $9, this was the perfect lunch.
