  • Fab1b
    The Vietnamese noodle soup? I have recently grown to love this stuff.

    I tried it, wasn't overly impressed. It might have been the restaurant as I've heard good things about pho.

    Eh I've tried it though wasn't blown away. Could have been the establishment I had it at though, wasn't the highest rated place on Yelp, bc my friend LOVE it.

    I've never had it but there is a local place that is supposed to be pretty awesome. I will try it at some point this summer.

    My friend raves over getting the version w/ "innards"....liver and all that. I've never tried it. I stick with the beef balls. :laugh:

    Love pho. There is a hole in the wall place here in DC, best pho you can get in DC. They have a nice spicy lemongrass pho. West Coast pho is def better though. Took my friend to the pho place in DC. Very uncultured guy when it comes to food. More of a pizza hut fail guy, but I still managed to get him to go. We dared him to eat one of those hot peppers they put in the pho. He acted like mr. tough guy that can handle all spice. After he ate it, he pulled the tough guy act for about 30 seconds, before turning into a little puss. It brought the lulz.

    Anyway, I drench mine in sriracha as well.

    It's not bad. Definitely depends on what you get in it, though.

    Pho? You mean ramen noodles?
  • Automatik
    I love ramen also. Somewhat similar, but different.

    Not the same.

    Ramen is a Japanese noodle dish. It consists of Chinese-style wheat noodles served in a meat or fish-based broth, often flavored with soy sauce or miso, and uses toppings such as sliced pork, dried seaweed, kamaboko, green onions, and occasionally corn.

    Pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup consisting of broth, linguine-shaped rice noodles, a few herbs, and meat.
    Sounds like the same to me.

    It's not.

    Hope this helps.

    What's the difference? Never had this Pho stuff, but as long as it's higher class than college-style Ramen, I'd definitely be interested in looking it up.

    Pho makes me piss like a race horse.

    I might get some tomorrow for lunch or try the Banh Mi. I haven't had that yet.
  • ernest_t_bass
    I've never had it. If it's similar to Ramen, I'd try it.

    I like the chicken and then also the steak and brisket. I hate the tripe, tendon, and other crap.

    That's the best part
  • Fab1b
    The veggies yes but I tried tripe and tendon on my first go and it almost ruined it for me.
