I'm a big fan of pho. I can eat pho everyday, in fact, I've ate pho 1 week straight before. That's how much I love pho. The love of first sight, started when my Vietnamese best friend introduced me to the dish. I'm hooked ever since. So, I'd like to say, I can differentiate types of pho... and this, by far is my least favorite. I can't taste any broth ... watery. You could tell right away before you even spin on the soup... I wouldn't call this a "pho"
