I see Pho I upvote.
Though I would definitely add some siracha to that.

If all Pho broth had that much fat/collagen... The world would be a better place.

In love with that fat, you are eating good!

Is that a nice thicc layer of beef fat on top? I need my pho to be the Exxon Valdez of soupy noodles. Gotta be able to drown a seabird in my bowl.

Get well soon, u/outcast96_ ! A nice bowl of pho is good for what ails you!

Vietnamese soup and coffee— The best.
Thai stir fry— The best.
Chinese comfort food (sweet & sour, General Tsao’s, etc.)— The best.
They each have their own strength.
There was also a Chinese Shabu Shabu restaurant (which is Mongolian soup) that was superb on par with Phò for sure.
_W1T3W1N3_ t1_jdxko6h wrote
There’s a Phò place in my region called “Phò King Good”.
That should help with the pronunciation.
_W1T3W1N3_ t1_jdxl5qx wrote
They sell Phò kits at my grocers. I might try one and see how good it is. It should only be a matter of spices, Thai Basil, and thin sliced beef.
I am something of a Phò proficionado trying all manner of Phò restaurants and I know what the best Phò probably tastes like at this point.

What about Pho Kim long?
slamongo t1_jdxon1d wrote
You can ask for a fatty broth on the side. Modern Viet don't ask for this anymore because of they are more consious of the health concern. They used to do it a lot in VN.

fyi, Phò is actually the word for prostitute. Phở is what you’re looking for. or you don’t need to add an accent, we can understand!
i find it so funny when i see foreigners make that mistake on this word, though i love it.

Love Phò, and Vietnamese food in general. Learned to appreciate it while on a project in Greensboro, NC, which has a surprisingly large Vietnamese contingent.
Ewer since then, while I was still doing a fair amount of travelling for out-of-town projects, I would seek out Vietnamese restaurants and always choose Phò as my first meal as a gauge to their quality.
One thing I learned was that the location and appearance weren't a very good guide to go by. The most sumptuous was in San Diego, but even thought they had a lobster tank and lots of gorgeous appurtenances the fare was mediocre.
My best success has been with tiny places in small and often somewhat dingy strip malls.

Had no idea. I knew it was the ở character but it doesn’t show up on my keyboard. I often look up online to cut&paste the correct form of words but I could have sworn I saw ò used elsewhere. I also didn’t know no one? minds if it’s unaccented. I would have thought it would be more annoying to not have at least some accent indicated. So that is good insight about sensibilities. And then there are our sensibilities too you know. I call people out on mistakes all the time so I will give you a pass.
_W1T3W1N3_ t1_jdxyzhg wrote
Vietnamese just said you got to use the ở character or nothing apparently ò is very wrong just a heads up.
opekiskagrl t1_jdy0188 wrote
My bad. I just used a copy and paste from an earlier entry to get the diacritical mark in there. No idea it was wrong, but I have no excuse for not knowing or being lazy.
This does not diminish my love for Phở. (And my very western spell checker insists I misspelled that. I corrected it too.)
teatimewithbatman1 t1_jdy0595 wrote
That's what traditional pho in Vietnam looks like. Pho in America has much much less fat and collagen
_W1T3W1N3_ t1_jdy200s wrote
Yeah I just wanted to let you know to avoid looking stupid and I felt bad because it was I who used the mark and I didn’t want to cause anyone into dismay.
bucketassrabbit t1_jdy3qtg wrote
yeah you’re good! Viet people love curiosity, so we will make fun of you for it for shits and giggles but we don’t care. we were taught growing up to eliminate all accents on our words when presenting them in a foreign language, so when in doubt, no accent is absolutely fine.
edit: and i have seen people open a viet restaurant but put Phò in their name.

Redawg660 t1_jdypik8 wrote
I really enjoy Pho and we are fortunate to have a lot of Vietnamese restaurants in Portland. That bowl of Pho is a little bit on the high fat side for me. I like it lean and I put enough chilis in it to heat it up.
urmomolaf_ t1_jdyww0d wrote
That looks so good OP. Can’t find any pho that as fatty as this one, like look at the extra fat. Where is it tho cuz I wanna try!!!!

No true Vietnamese would ever add Sriracha to pho. What you need is the homemade spicy satay sauce that each and every pho noodle shop will make themselves at night using black magic fuckery and each shop has its own distinct way of making it and sometimes you base your decision on that fucking satay alone.

So do you think I should edit it then?
I’m not having a good time in life the country being ruined.

Oh that, yes, someone has explained that, oh grand-pa-pa.
Ask not that pray that I should edit it, for the discomfort of doing so. I’ve got encumbered by the perils. Graces later such and such.
Pip pip.

Prob bad pic. But phở in Vietnam tends to be more flavourful and 'fatter' than outside the country.

In the North they're pretty hard core about the sauce, that isn't the case in Ho Chi Minh City (where OP ate this). There many enjoy some spice and flavor in their Pho...
wow tough, 3 toxic comments over Pho, looking at your comment history you seem to be a very toxic person, just shitting on any post or comment you see.
I don't care about you enough to say I hope you get over that, but for the people around you at least I guess I hope you get over yourself and chill out. Just be happy with yourself and stop using other redditors as your punching bag.
you are blocked
