Vietnamese Noodle Soup... Tasting nutritious food in a very delicious way!

[This is the actual menu. Apologies are made for the fact that i have no idea what the escape codes for these Vietnamese letters might be. If you really need the little accent marks, mail me and i can fill you in on what you might be missing.]

Pho has been appreciated for its taste and at the same time, appreciated as a wholesome, nutritious meal. It has all the qualities a health-conscious eater would look for: fresh, natural and... always delicious!

To appreciate Pho requires more than just loving to eat it, one would need to "know" everything about its preparation. What makes authentic Pho so stimulating is quite simple: long hours of simmering the choicest beef produces a broth that maintains its full and rich flavor, which is delicately seasoned with seven different types of natural spices to give an aroma and taste that can only be described as....... irresistible!

Pho provides a delicious one-dish meal for your breakfast, lunch, or even dinner. You will be served a bowl of light-bodied broth ladled over your choice of beef, accompanied by fresh rice noodle and garnished with coriander and onions. Basil leaves, bean sprouts and green peppers are optional to your liking.

One Pho Cong Ly customer, who also happens to be a food critic, has said: "... enjoying a bowl of Pho produces a smug feeling of having partaken of something as healthy as it is delicious ...".

At Pho Cong Ly, you won't just enjoy this consistent flavor that our chain always strives to preserve; you will actually experience how Pho should taste ... at its best!

Why don't you judge it for yourself?

Enjoy your meal!
