Vietnam Day 1: Xin Chào Ho Chi Minh
Pham Ngu Lao |
Pham Ngu Lao is the busy area when it comes at night, full with night life, beers and just ordinary Vietnamese cuisine. At first, we chilled out trying some of their local beers and accompanied with banh mi. Great combination snack or appetizer before our big meal, which is raw beef noodle soup or pho bo.

I'm not a fan of Pho but my hubby loves them. He always has his pho whenever he sees one. Although I don't really have pho dish for myself but I always have a sip of the soup whenever he orders it. And pho from this restaurant was absolutely toothsome. The broth was very appetizing and flavorsome. The raw beef was just melt-in-your-mouth piece of meat. However, I still prefer my own dish, which was stew beef dish served with Vietnamese bread. OMG!! It was a great great dish. I believe that this beef had been stewed in the broth for long hours, that's why the meat was very tender and absorbed those beautiful flavor from the broth . The broth itself was very rich and tasteful. Served with banh mi, Vietnamese white bread that crisp on the outside yet soft in the inside. A perfect combination, when you dip that white bread into this flavorful broth. I was just about to lick clean this bowl if no ones around.
