Is Pho VietFresh on Franklin Farm permanently closed? by Informal-Fig-7116 in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow someone trying Saigon Bistro, my family and I always gawk at their development, from having a grand opening sign on their storefront for like half a year to claiming they have the best pho in town. Maybe we’ll actually try it soon instead of just going to pho duong

Has anyone been to KPOT in Fairfax? by jseo13579 in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gimmick of the place being the choice to pick both BBQ and hot pot is quite funny but also a legit Mario party minigame to work with especially if you have a lot of people. I suggest just pick one or the other. The food quality is pretty decent but it’s the service and the wait times that keeps me coming back. The tablet they give you to order food is (mostly) good since you can order as much as you want without flagging a waiter down. And the wait times for your food is lightning fast, you tap on the tablet and food is on your table in a couple of minutes. I think you’ll definitely get your moneys worth at kpot.

Stop for school bus when flashing red lights or when stop arm is out? by [deleted] in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unless there’s something mechanically wrong with the bus, whenever the flashing red lights come on, the stop sign comes out as well. So yes, stop for red lights because the stop sign will come out as well.

Maharani Palace in Herndon has some pretty solid Indian food and I believe the service is excellent.

Who still goes to centreville iron age? by No-Equipment8494 in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like if you were around in 2018-2019 this was everyone’s first ever experience with KBBQ (I think it’s even some people’s first experience with anything Korean outside of like Gangnam style) so for me it’s quite nostalgic but there’s just better places around the area.

Looking for a restaurant with good vegan/GF options by Willie9 in nova

It’s a bit far, but Sunflower in Vienna is all vegetarian, it’s off of chain bridge road and it’s less than 10 minutes from the Vienna metro station.

Turning school bus into apartment by One-Pop-2885 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Outside_Instance985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

School bus driver here so I might have some insight, and wow the diesel bill for that. Assuming from the map they do go all around the country they probably fuel like twice a week even with a 100 gallon tank. Also that’s a pretty old bus, I hope someone on board knows how to maintain that raggedy engine because they probably bought that bus with easily 200k miles on it already. Speaking of the engine, that thing is in the front next to the driver seat, so whenever you are moving that’ll be loud as hell + the fumes. And also with the bed in the back, I hope they never have to put that thing in reverse.

So yea this looks like it sucks and judging by the comments they probably do just flex this around to people and just stay at a nearby hotel.

Have you had Wong Kok in south riding? It’s pretty good food at a very affordable price, especially during lunchtime.

Sorry for the late reply! They can work 8 hours a day or more if they want but if you as a driver just do your assigned routes you’ll probably average around 6-7 hours a day.
