text: Not only was my Pho here unforgettable it was no doubt pholicious This particular Vietnamese dish is one of my alltime staples that I cannot live without nnAs usual I always order a bowl that includes rare steak meatballs and beef brisket while stuffing it with all the fresh veggies that normally comes with it like the sprouts Asianmint leaves and squeeze of lemon Interestingly they did not have cilantro Maybe they ran out Hopefully that was the case because it is a MUST Lastly I like to drizzle hoisin to give it a more rich sweet taste and the universal hot sauce that seriously can be put in just about anything Siracha Voila I am ready to slurp awaynnThe steak meatballs and beef brisket were soft and tender the way it always should be I thought the broth was quite goodthe level of saltiness was balanced and tasted smooth The broth is the key to a great Pho if you do not agree I would like to hear from you nnThe noodles themselves I thought were also really good actually I do not normally comment on the noodles because I always thought they tend to be standard and the same across the board Not in this case It was prepared perfectly and had an aromatic tasting hint to ityou do not want soggy noodles EVERnnI cannot go further without discussing the etiquettes of slurping Pho At this particular time I happened to notice across me two tables down to my left a couple eating Pho in probably the most bizarrest unorthodox kind of way who splits a Pho bowl To me that is a NO NO To make this sound even more disturbing they either slurped all the broth already or they dumped it out onto another bowl My good eyes saw that it looked like only the solid ingredients were left over Both people basically chopsticked their meat and noodles out onto their plate A PLATE Then after that they would examine their pieces of meat and it appeared like they were picking it apart or something and then devouring whatever they thought looked goodnnTo properly eat Pho all you do is using either a fork or chopstick grab your noodle and meatveggies bare minimum and try to fit it into your Asian spoon After that is done you may slurp away I like to take it a step further by also scooping the broth into the spoon so I can get the full tastennFor once I have exhausted my brain and fingers typing this review sigh
