First Time Pho

One of my favorites is bun cha gio which is rice noodles, lettuce, cucumbers, ground peanuts, basil, and spring rolls with a zesty sauce that's a bit on the sweet side.

Pho with beef and fat.
The beef is very fatty, and sliced very thin. Absolutely delicious. Fat is a highly underrated food, even demonised, but gradually the nutritional truth is emerging. Fat is excellent food, and a much better choice than carbs for energy. And the Vietnamese know how to cook it.

It is all good. I like to get the version with Brisket and fatty brisket. The fat adds flavor. My wife usually has the chicken based one. You can't really go wrong, though. Enjoy!

Often there will be a combination bowl of pho that has all the different meats that the restaurant uses. From that you can choose your favorites. And weird as it may seem I do like beef tendon. It is not the unexpected gristle of a steak, tough and unchewable, rather it is the same material but cooked until very tender. It has a rather subtle flavor. And I also do like the brisked. It is on the opposite end of the flavor spectrum with a very beefy taste.
