ABOUT 6 TOWN WAD About Town Divorce Ad 2-17-16.indd 1 2/17/16 5:37 PM PLACES WORTH KNOWING ABOUT SAIGON NOODLE BOWL Vietnamese food is becoming more and more popular, as its diverse and full-flavored menu boasts a lot of vegetables and uses little oil. Influenced by the Chinese and the French (Vietnam being a former French colony), the diverse menu is sweet, sour and spicy. Located in the strip by the 280 Target, Saigon Noodle Bowl does not serve alcohol, but makes a great lunch if you can brave the traffic. Until traveling back in time is possible, may we suggest DERMAL FILLERS? Facial lines and wrinkles can make you look older than you feel. That’s why the Skin Wellness Center offers a variety of dermal fillers and cosmetic procedures to allow you to turn back the hands of time! You can have a younger appearance in as little as one appointment and the results can last up to two years. You will be able to go back to your normal activities as soon as you leave the office, with little risk of side effects or other concerns. Pho Soup Dr. Hartman, Dr. Dyck, and their amazing staff are well known (worth the trip!) in Birmingham for their dedication to quality dermatologic care and excellence in customer satisfaction.
