  1. Almost perfect, except for that you used round rice noodles (bún) instead of the flat ones (phở). Maybe this was just an unavailability issue. Otherwise, great recipe. Also, Chinese fried dough (Youtiao/quẩy) and garlic vinegar would be great additions.

  2. This place is ok for MANHATTAN pho, but if you’re accustomed to SJ pho, it’s going to be half the flavor for twice the price.
    Yes
    Manhattan ruins Asian food for the sake of getting customers (dull flavors, substituted or missing ingredients), and they’re not even run by persons of the ethnicity of the listed cuisine

  3. Vietnamese here, been eating pho all my life to the point I am considering myself a pho gourmet. I am a Southerner but I do travel a lot all over Vietnam because of my work. Props to Jimmy because he get every step right, it a shame he cannot use the fresh pho noodle.

    There seems to be a lot of argument of the fish sauce use in pho cooking in the comment section.

    As in cooking, it may be use in a small insignificant amount to add a bit of the saltiness and umami kick. But it really easy to ruin the pho so people usually use bouillon powder or msg to do that instead. I personally think Jimmy put the fish sauce a bit too late but hey everybody have their own recipe.

    As a condiment, Northerner enjoy it with pickled garlic and chilly or vinegar chilly sauce, Southerner do use a wider range of condiment but fish sauce is usually a no. Some place they may put fish sauce there on the table, not because it's authentic but you do have oddballs that enjoy it in their pho (never personally know one in my entire life) like the ones that eat com tam with soy sauce or bun dau without mam tom. Or people just straight up wang the fish sauce on their pho because it is too bad and too bland so they want some extra flavor to just finish the damn thing and table salt usually not available – This usually happened in the poor areas where people cook bootleg pho to serve the low wagers.
    Another case people making a diluted fish sauce as a dipping sauce for pho roll (pho cuon) / or the restaurant may serve bun bo hue too and we do use fish sauce in that dish.

  4. Oxtail adds more flavor homie. I douse mine with saracha, a bit of hoisin sauce. Add a mountain of chili oil. 3 limes. Green onions. Bean sprout. Idc how good the soup is, I make it 10x better with my ingredients lol. My soup be red affff. Short ribs don’t look good with pho. Looks dry. Oxtail and that bone marrow is where it’s at
