Is Pho /fit/?

Around 600 calories for a bowl, 28 grams of protein, 13 grams of fat, and 70 grams of carbs. That broth, those herbs.

You are trying so hard to make this happen.
But yes its delicious now calm down.

unless you have a vietnamese community near you literally don't bother. the level of quality between real, honest-to-god vietnamese pho and the soulless imitation shit that stupid fucking chiniggers try to pass off as pho is insane

there is literally no point in eating pho anywhere in the continental united states if it's not in california's san gabriel valley or texas' dallas-fort worth

I live in Southeast Texas. Lots of Vietnamese people here. I go to the pho places in Port Arthur where all the old Vietnamese guys eat at. It's good shit bro.

just had some shrimp pho today

how exactly is the beef pho served? the shrimp one comes with shrimp already in the soup and cooked

but beef pho is raw? are you supposed to immediately put it in the soup yourself to begin cooking?

>>38777262
It's not about trying hard, it's about loving pho.

Kek, I live in Mass and there's shitloads of Asian people here.

(nothing wrong with msg)

>>38776858
It is healthy but it's really not a ton of calories. I didn't know this was a discussion and it seems like you just wanted to make a post about pho

>>38777500
The beef is raw until it is placed in a steaming hot bowl of noodles and broth. It's good shit man. I had pho today with beef round, beef brisket, and sliced meatballs. It was awesome.

Is it offensive to put sambal and soy sauce in the pho I order at restaurants?

>>38777542
Eat two bowls then

>>38777554
Not at all. That's what is for. You customize your pho how you want with the sauces. I put sriracha, plum sauce, soy, and and a few drops of fish sauce in mine.

>>38777414
at this day and age there are gooks everywhere, im sure u can get good pho anywhere in NA desu senpai

I make my own pho broth. It takes a bit time though since I have to boil the bones for awhile. I don't have a pressure cooker which apparently can cook it faster.

>>38777414
>Implying NYC doesn't have god tier pho

I eat that Pho Bo Vien. (Pho with Meatballs).

Squirt some Hoisin Sauce and you got a bomb ass bowl for gainz

>>38776858
Fuck you, OP. I was craving pho all day but didn't want to go by myself so I just lifted and then sat on my ass reading manga all day. I thought I could come to this place to escape my sins, and lo and behold this fuckin thread is there.

>>38777799
I do enjoy them thanks. Just enjoyed some earlier today and soon it's time for another one.

>>38777712

Alright bros. I'm not big by any means, but I fucking love asian food. I hate carbs. One of the easiest, even though shitty way for me to intake is asian food but specifically asian noodles of every type, pho, ramen, udon, yakisoba, etc.


I always figured this was troll science by utilizing asian god-tiers for the food they produce, but maybe /fit/ is onto something.

Not all Asian people are Vietnamese, which is exactly his point. Only Vietnamese people make pho worth eating, other Asians will pass off their piss soup as pho and Americunts like you and I will eat it and think it's great.

Grew up in and around garden grove and westminster in california, largest vietnamese community outside of vietnam and grew up with sriracha before that was a meme. Now in Philly and I get my pho from Chinatown. Plenty of Viets there too, and Chinese that know what they're doing.

Pho can be /fit/ but don't bother with the rice noodles. Replace them with egg noodles if they offer it. Otherwise nutritionally you're basically just eating meat with oily salt water. I don't even count the fish sauce or spices nutritionally.

Don't put the sriracha in until you've got a good taste of the broth. If the broth is real good it's probably better on its own relatively unadulterated before putting what's essentially spicy ketchup in it. If it's not that good then go ahead put the srirach in. I like mine with extra jalapeno and basil, cilantro, green onions myself (very herbal)

If you must use sriracha I recommend putting in a little dish aside from the rest of the soup and dipping the meatballs in it. Also 50/50 sriracha/hoisin sauce.

Ramen can also be /fit/ but probably not the kind that I actually like (tonkotsu is really fatty)

Yeah, there's sodium in all these. Enjoy that delicious sodium and glutamates and drink more water to make up for it (you should have been doing this anyway). I add extra salt and MSG (if available) myself and I don't give a fuck and neither should you.

Don't be a fucking hipster about food please the Viets probably think we're fucking crazy for our neurotic attitudes about food.

>>38777414 checking in, glad y'all responded with all your favorite pho places. i've traveled the US a lot and the only places i've found legit pho are where i live/work (SGV) and one place i've been a lot (DFW)

if you guys haven't had genuine vietnamese pho, though, please go try some. i worked briefly at a chinese-run modern "fusion noodle soup" place and the difference in the quality is palpable, not just yelp food critic shit. from my experience, vietnamese-run places tend to stick to a single well-balanced recipe and they take a lot more care about their product because it's a huge part of their culture. the chinese-run place i worked at literally did whatever they could to push a bowl out of the kitchen, and the end product was inconsistent and usually pretty shitty. vietnamese places also tend to use more and generally better meat in their pho. they don't cut corners, esp not with their filet mignon.

again sorry for my misgivings against generic chinese-run pho places, but pho is a huge staple in my personal diet and if you're not eating viet pho, you're doing yourself dirty famalam

>>38785511
oh yeah and pho as I eat it (no rice noodles) (spicy, herbal salt water with meat) is basically cutting food, not bulking food.

>>38777414
Philadelphia (around Washington ave) has a very robust Vietnamese community, and the best pho I've ever had. Fuck you.

>>38777414
I work in a very nice Vietnamese restaurant and I assure you our Pho Ga and Bun Bo is the shit compared to the crap you get in other restaurants. It helps that the chefs are actually Vietnamese and have worked under such names as Charles Phan.

It's hard to get good Pho for some reason. Alot of the Pho I've had barely tastes any different than Miso

i've never sold a bowl of pho ga. white people don't like it, asian people don't like it, and i don't know of any places that make pho ga that tastes better than a can of chicken noodle soup

is it being a food hipster when i want my $7 to taste good? nigga i stick to the pho tai and just dump the veggie plate in there w/ some hoisin. how do you make pho ga taste better?

>>38777414
MN here. gook restaurants all over this shit, pho aplenty.

>>38785861
> how do you make pho ga taste better?
how the meat is prepared and what cut it is makes a big diff but same for the beef

Buford Highway and Roswell road have so many good small restaurants. I went to a Malaysian one last month that blew my mind.
