(Lyrics - Toni Braxton - Breathe Again)
If I never taste your Shrimp Spring Rolls again
If I never taste your tender beef again
If I never smell your broth and sauce now and then
Will I never Yelp and review you once again
Please understand if Bo Bites rants
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I come by Pho Viet Nam again
Pho Viet Nam
Pho Viet Nam
That I shall come by Pho Viet Nam again
Pho Viet Nam
Pho Viet Nam is a pretty solid Pho joint in the heart of the Chandler suburbs.
Pho Viet Nam is definitely your old school mom/pop owned Pho restaurant. The place itself was quite typical of such a place. Bad portrait paintings, poor replicas of traditional artwork and a couple of tv screens on the wall; you know the cheap Chinatown stuff you put up to signify you're an Asian establishment. In my books, the place was not really utilized to maximize it's potential plus it didn't look well kept.
Needless to say, you can't beat the classic Vietnamese cuisine here. I started with Shrimp spring rolls. Generally I would go with something fried like eggrolls, but for some reason I shot for this and I was not disappointed. Dipped with the sweet Hoisin sauce and spicy chili gave this a classic appetizer a kick and aromatic refreshing bite. Next up was of course my comfort food, Pho! The broth really brings this dish home for me and here at Pho Viet Nam it definitely did so. As I peered into the kitchen I see a family at work busting out dish after dish as if it was in their own home.
In the end, Pho Viet Nam is a new must go Pho place for me. I think overall I totally appreciate my Pho made by mom and pops in the back room and find it comforting to say. - Enjoy!
