Some video of his skills. He still has all his fingers intact, as far as I could tell! (there's also a little bit of our idle chatter...)

In watching her with other customers, I realized that "Com chay" seemed to mean "the plate of the day" (literally "vegetarian rice", although it was tons of veggies and various tofu pork cracklings and "meats"), and it was just a big combo of everything on offer that evening. The next time we went, I realized we had to just shout "PHO!" right when we walked in, in order to get the vegetarian Pho, which is super delicious, heavy on the garlic and greens. Any choice is a good choice there!

Amy - That man is using a jeweler's saw, above. Students are taught to saw through metal the same way to this day in the U.S. (myself included), though sawing through a soft wood is even easier than metal. I could make you some sawed wood or metal carvings anytime! If you ever go to a Fine Art/Craft show and see "cut-outs" in a metal piece, this is how it was made. FYI :)
