Vietnamese Restaurant - Pho Hao

Two days ago, I went to the post office to collect a registered letter from Malaysia. I found a Vietnamese restaurant next to KOHL. The name of the restaurant is Pho Hoa. The specialty of the restaurant is Noodle Soup. My car was parked in front of the restaurant and quickly rush to the post office to collect the mail.

The location of the restaurant is not obvious. It is not easy to spot and it comes with a small sign board. The restaurant can only occupy less than 50 people. The restaurant is own by the typical Vietnamese. You can see their face, their colour and their language. Also the music and song that broadcast.

I am lucky enough to get a table during the peak lunch hour. The menu is only a big folded card. But it is not simple to read , in fact is complicated for those 1st timer. Just a simple Beef Noodle Soup it comes with so many choices. With tender beef, raw meat, meat ball or without this or that. I picked the Adventurer's choice, No. 44. Pho Chín, Nam, Gau, Gân, Sách. It means noodle soup with brisket, flank, tendon, tripe, and fatty flank.

The meal served less than 5 minutes. From far, I can imagine how delicious is the noodle. What a big bowl! Even I ordered a small size. When the big bowl of noodle is on my table, I quickly put the bean sprout, basil leave and squeezed the lime into the soup while it is still hot. The first thing I would do is drink the soup.

Wow. It it is superb! The soup is so nice and tasty. Is really what I used to eat in Melbourne. Honestly, it is better than the other Vietnamese restaurant along E Bidwell. The Pho, noodle is so smooth. Besides that, there is a compliment, the chili sauce. Is really hot. Real Chili! Not those fake that I had in the past month. The meat is so tender and lean. Really nice to dip the meat into the Chili sauce. What a wonderful meal!

At first I doubt my ability to finish the meal. But I made it finally. Almost clear the bowl. The price is cheap. Less than 6 dollars. Before I want to leave, found their website - http://www.phohoa.com. They have so many branches. Even Korea, Singapore and Malaysia. Bahija, you should try the branch in Malaysia. Strongly Recommended!
