Place:
 
	Kim's Vietnamese
	xxx Castro Street
	Mountain View

Description:

	Kim's is a small Vietnamese restaurant on Castro Street in Mountain View.
	They specialize in Pho, seafood, and vegetarian food.
	There's beef pho, chicken pho, vegie pho (that would be faux pho),
	meat and seafood dishes, noodle dishes, vegie dishes,
	vegie imitation-meat/fish dishes, crunchy appetizers.
	The vegie soups were amazingly good.

	Atmosphere: Formica, Family-style with staff talking loudly to 
	each other :-). Not usually too crowded.  I haven't eaten there 
	in a large group, but they seemed to cope well enough with a 
	group of a dozen who came in once while I was there.
	Prices: Cheap.

Directions:

    Short:

	Castro Street, at the California Street end of the
	main restaurant area, roughly across from Sono Sushi.
	Parking's available in back.

    Public Transit:
	
	The Mountain View CalTrain station is 3-4 blocks walk down Castro.
	Do NOT get off at the Castro station; its the wrong one.

    Long:

	Take 101 to Mountain View.  Take the Moffet Blvd exit away from 
	the bay to downtown MtV.  The restaurant will be three and a half
	blocks past the Caltrain tracks on the right hand side of the street.
