Hello, this post will be all about the Viet's most renowned dish, Pho.
Pho is a traditional dish in Vietnam and is sold anywhere, from nice restaurants to street vendors. It is a hot soup that consists of broth, flat rice noodles, meat (either beef or chicken) and few herbs (cilantro, bean sprouts and basil leave).
Although being a renowned dish in Vietnam, Pho is a rather simple feed, nothing too fancy. It is a dish made to be eaten at any time of the day (Viet's occasionally eat Pho for breakfast or lunch, not just dinner).
Ordering at a restaurant:
There are many selectable variations from which you may choose when ordering a bowl of Pho in regards to the meat. This ranges from different types of beef to chicken, each with their own unique and exquisite taste.
Asian restaurants will always allow their customers to enhance or alter the flavour of the dish to their own liking by providing a range of sauces and garnishes on the table for free! The most common are Hoisin Sauce, chilli sauce, fish sauce and fresh chilli.
In addition, a plate of fresh vegetables consisting of basil leaves, bean sprouts, slices of lemon and fresh chilli (if not already provided) is always served with any bowl of Pho free of charge. Depending on your taste and preferences, you may choose to add these to your meal or leave them aside.
Prices for Pho are relatively cheap, commonly ranging from $10-$15 (depending on the size you order - small/medium/large).
Craving for Pho? Go grab a fat bowl at your local Asian restaurant!
