Yeah I don't usually get the soup.

I had pork hock too. :)

Apparently Tai-Son has reopened in richmond at a new location.

Anyone been to Pho Tan on Main and 33rd? That place is worth trying out. I have their bun bo he and it was awwwwwwwwwwwsommmmmmmmmmmmeeeee. That shit is like crack. Thankfully I don't have a car or else I'd drive myself there to eat pho.

Where is it in Richmond?

Not sure I think it's garden city and something. (near alderbridge)

donno about that one but the original thai son on broadway is going real downhill, i been going there since i was little and now the portions are so small and the food tastes like crap im never going back

yessir! tell the truth and shame the devil!

on the other hand i've been hitting up surrey's pho tam.

the noodles are are kinda chewy.....so fucking good ! the soup is perfect! and the meat is bountiful!!! godbless that place

Pho Thai Son is not what it used to be. I don't go there anymore.

Pho in Surrey? As good as you make it seem, I would not go anywhere over the Patullo or Port Mann Bridge for pho. :lol

Here in Toronto, on the other hand, a few minutes away from my hotel at Spadina and Dundas is Pho 88 which is pretty good. Their "house special" is nothing like what we get in Vancouver. It's missing a tonne of the meats but damn, the noodles are perfect and the soup is wicked, however loaded with MSG galore. :p

^ You'd be suprised at how good surrey pho is, lol if your willing to try pho in texas, and toronto and crap give surrey pho a try

and

pho tau bay also in surrey

I had pho everyday for about 5 days in paris 2 weeks ago. I lived near the Chinatown (which is really more cambodian/laos/burma influence). The pho broth i had there was very clear - kinda like Pho Tam in surrey where you taste only one clear flavor instead of a mumbo jumbo of spice flavors.
I had heard and read from many that Paris pho is the best in the world as the viet/burma/cambodia ppl fled here during the civil wars and learned to cook Pho in French ways but I could not appreciate anything noticeably French about the Pho. Here is a picture though:

Nothing to do with Pho, but I just ate some french bread with pâté on it from Ba Le. Fucking yums!

Went to Le Do on Hastings today and thought it was pretty good. Spring rolls were delicious and service was good. The younger waitress girl was pretty cute but I was kinda thrown off because she had dark tanned skin and looked like a Brazilian girl or something haha. Good thing I went right before noon because the place started to get packed around 12:15-12:30

Yes they opened in the Plaza at Garden City and Alderbridge. The plaza where the old Hot Shots used to be. But the Tai Son is located on the North side of the plaza near the back part.

Wouldn't say it's the best I've had but I love blocks from this place and it's pretty decent place overall SO i go often

I still miss the old place on Main and 21st. sigh where did they go!!!

Pho Hong is the bEsssttTest ~ =)

tai son is above the old mobile corner. just take the elevator up. to be honest, its the cleanest pho restaurant i've been to so far and the decor is nice too.

pho lan on granville and no.3 richmond is pretty good too

Where is this Pho Hong you speak of and why is it good?

^What the fuck is up with your avatar? I think the Pho Hong he's talking about is the one in Burnaby right in front of Wedy's and beside the Chrysler dealership. That place is shit. Seriously. It's fucking terrible.

You like Hello Kitty better? :)

Okay I know which one you're talking about. It's expensive, the interior is drab but the girls who work there can be pretty hot.

I can't really wack it to either picture, so I'm indifferent. It's just that...I didn't expect it, lol.

so i went to pho tam again...ordered a #8 large holy fuck... so much meat!!!

then i went to newtown bakery and then ate 2 baos after.

lol... i'm a monster

best pho restaurants.. theres one on e.broadway and on .. kingsway and lesters? or close to lesters. always go there.
