Guest T14K Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 if you're really into pho you say poopoo on the cock sauce and go straight for this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasfacevictm Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 uh i don't think pronouncing it like FUH is really pronouncing it like a native. It's not spelled PHO. It's spelled Phở . those little doo dads mean you pronounce it different. O has a few different pronunciations even in english. if i pronounced DOG like doog you guys would talk shit right? yes you would... pronouncing perro as pero is a whole fucking different word. so the fact that they try shows they are trying to pronounce a different word. you guys suck at life. Take it easy, hoser. I'm all about proper pronunciation if I'm trying to learn the language and hook my accent up. But, how many people outside of Vietnam know how to say Vietnamese words properly? Do you stomp around pronouncing all words the way they are supposed to be pronounced in the country they originate from? I doubt it. Are you one of these people who change up their whole cadence of speech when they hit a random foreign word? If so, I hope you call Spain, Espana and Mexico, May-hee-co and so on down the line. :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 sriracha... AKA cock sauce. You dont need a fucking history lesson on Pho. This really this only reason pho exists, As a vessel for sriracha. Just like messican food's sole purpose is a vessel for GUAC. They're fucking pointless without it.

Karl_Hungus Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 had some for dinner tonight. vermicelli bowls and imperial rolls are delicious too... pho with rare steak and siracha wins. i've begun to think there may be a siracha shortage in area. last three times i've tried to buy it, the stores have been out. bunk.... turtle tower in SF is a good spot.

thecarwreck Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Seattle has like 1000000 pho joints... most aren't bad, many are amazing. Upstate NY... not so much. om. nom. nom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croupier Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 I was just in NY right after xmas & I saw no less than 2 newish Pho joints on St. Marks Place. They looked more hipster than 'mom&pop', however... was w/my girl (who is vegetarian) so we didn't stop in. it was lunchtime on a Sunday(?), & they both seemed to have a decent amount of people in there eating, which is a good sign. anyway, if you are going to seek out Pho & you are a Pho virgin, a good way to tell you're in a decent spot is the # of people in there eating & at least 75% should be Asian. that's a good rule for any restaurant. If it's empty, leave. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Bueller Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 And what to call it, I don't care. It doesn't matter to me, because I still get my massive bowl of soup. Some places have it listed as "pho" on menus, others it is "noodle soup" with rice or wheat noodles and whatever ingredients. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morton Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Racha in Seattle is a Thai joint that has a Thai version of Pho that is quite good. That is a little fancier than most, a good rule of thumb in finding a good Pho spot in Seattle is the number of Mexicans in there, for whatever reason Mexicans love the Pho. Never tried "What the Pho?" in Bellevue but have always liked the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwampFightOner Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 During the 80's, there was a huge influx of refugees from Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos. Providence's suburbs got a bunch of them. Pho is the shit though, you need to figure out the right mix for yourself. It's all about the fixings man. Throw in the beef paste, sriracha, and hoisin sauce. It's all about the condiments man. You don't gotta tell me, I'm from Smith Hill...my elementary school was like 75% Asian haha Yeah, it's cool everyone likes it, I just don't. I put all the different shit in it too, at the direction of my Asian homie...like I said it didn't taste bad by any means, just not my steez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
