For me, crepes ain't worth the stress to make fresh. Just buy a little pack from store and focus on filling is my go to.

Halal Chicken and Lamb over rice. I've made my own at home before and after all the effort that goes into making the sauces, the meats, the rice, and veggies, I somehow end up with a dish that cost at least twice what street carts sell, at 5 times the length to make it and isn't as good. I wouldn't make it at home unless I lived somewhere where that was the only way I could get it

Even more so, bo kho.

I just want to express my appreciation for this phrase.

I also do agree that homemade broth is worth making, but it is more a byproduct of having made something else for me. And it's not difficult just takes a long time. Chuck everything in the slow cooker overnight, in the morning there is stock. Then from the bones of that stock you can make the bone broth, again overnight will work.
