There are two things about pho that bug me. Being a big tonkotsu ramen man, I hate thin soup, and the herb placed in the pho doesnt make it any better.
The other thing is that pho is pronounced like a question. Vietnamese pronunciation is harder than Chinese pronunciation.
Out here in Maryland there is a pho restaurant where a picture of president bush hangs on the wall and the 21" tv perched high close to the ceiling is eternally tuned in to the fox news channel.
just my kind of dream eating establishment.
