Pho is a soup dish that begins with a nice big bowl of beef stock soup with a heap of rare flank steak, tripe, tendons and rice noodles. When it arrives at your table, squeeze in some fresh lime, a few drops of hot sauce to taste, and shred some oriental basil. Mix it all together and enjoy. It is polite to eat with both hands - chopsticks in one hand and an Asian soup spoon in the other.
You might also enjoy some of the finger foods. Here's a motivational image of what came to our table.

PS. If you have an extra minute or two, today is a really good day to visit Katie's place and post a great big Happy B-day smiley.

Mmmm, pho...is that place on 23rd st.?
G'day! I'm finally here.
Yumm, deelish.
I like asian style food and when the family finally does go out on a weekend we often have a yum cha in one of the restaurants in China Town in the city.
I visited last week but I was looking at your blog on books and then couldn' get back here. So then I found myself at "Rose Cottage Studio" and then got caught up with all the goings on there.
Cheeers and beers,
Mark.
G'day kylie, cielo, marisa
This sounds good even at 8:30 am! With a tall glass of Vietnamese iced coffee--my favorite beverage in all the world. Like manna.
