  • Spicy Pho with crabs...say what??? Okay I was deeply intrigued and quite excited having learned that my favourite soup noodle dish had married my favourite food grouping while having an affair with my favourite edible compound: Pho + seafood + capsaicin (makes things spicy). What could possibly go wrong? (tomatoes, btw, but i digress). With the promise of experiencing the saliva-inducing threesome, I was lured by my friends to the ossington strip that i admittedly isn't a huge fan of, to taste the wonder. As soon as you walk into to Pho Tien Thanh (which sounds like pho heaven in chinese when sounding it out loud, but actually does not mean that in vietnamese), you are encased by the aroma of awesome vietnamese food. So here's a tip: don't bring anything inside that you don't want to smell like awesome deliciousness for weeks to come. To be honest, the spicy crab pho isn't worthy of special trip to the area, but it was really good. It was tomato-based (it's very rare for me to like anything tomato-based) and in a huge proportion. Each bowl not only have giant prawns, but also a crab bodypart, pigs blood, pig's feet, and tofu. You can ask for it to be served without any of the ingredients mentioned above by writing it in the order form. I opted out of the pigs blood, and i probably should have done the same with the pig's feet, because the feet was dry and skinny and tasted funky. The fragrant soup tasted a bit like tomyum. The noodles are round instead of flat, but i'm pretty sure you can also ask for the flat noodles. The spring rolls are not worth ordering. They are super tiny and comes with a few tiny leaves of iceberg lettuce (that are not big enough to make a wrap with) and some vermicelli with a bowl of fish sauce. MEH. The coconut milk shake, though expensive, is worth the $5 as you can taste the coconut flesh. **EDIT** I came back again a few days later and tried their regular pho with rare and fatty beef and their broken rice with chicken, beef, and porkchop. The pho was great, but the rice was not. The meats were extremely small, dry, and jerky. Only the chicken was a bit acceptable. I would just stick to the pho. CASH only
