Pho Radio

I haven't listened to this yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Andrea's latest newsletter alerted me to an hour long call in radio show on Seattle NPR affiliate 94.6FM KUOW where folk call in to recommend their favourite phocations in the Seattle area. I've never been to Seattle, but I've eaten plenty Pho,

In the Pacific Northwest, restaurants selling Pho are popping up everywhere. The Vietnamese noodle soup is the ultimate healthy fast food. But are all bowls of Pho the same? For the Weekday staff all new pho places are held against Thanh Vi on University Way NE. We have yet to find any bowl better. So, enlighten us. Where do you like to eat pho? Today Weekday creates a list of great pho places, with your help. audio link.

Guests: Andrea Nguyen is a Vietnamese cooking teacher and the author of the cookbook Into the Vietnamese Kitchen. Hsiao–Ching Chou is the food editor for The Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

I am very impressed about the vietnamese Pho's subject on the world. I'd ever eaten the Pho in Hanoi, Saigon, Paris, London, Rome, Lyon, Frankfurt, etc... The basic of Pho is the rice vermicelli and beef but there is a lot of variety, some bowl is very good some other is better but finally, I got the idea that Pho just like the italian pizza in the world, the base is la pasta but the different taste that may be or depend on "servi avec d'amour" (served with love!) :-)
