Pronounced something like "fuuuh" with a drawn-out vowel, PHO is difficult for Westerners to say correctly because of the tone. Luckily, pho is easier to eat than to pronounce. ๐
And we are so delighted to serve PHO in our complimentary breakfast as a way to introduce a Vietnamese tradition to our valued international guests.

Pho consists of flat rice noodles in a light, meat-based broth. The dish is usually accompanied by basil, lime, chili, and other extras on the side so that eaters can season the soup to their own taste. The balanced tastes of sweet, salty, spicy, and citrus are highly contagious.

When the pho arrives, take your chopsticks in your dominant hand and the soup spoon in the other.
Start with the broth: sip it and take in the deep, rich flavors of the meat that's been boiled into every drop of the stuff. The aromatics come next: the star anise, ginger, and cinnamon should saturate your nostrils as you sip the hot liquid.
Slurping is completely acceptable, even encouraged: it shows you're enjoying your meal and is a high compliment to the cooks! Read about etiquette in Vietnam.
After you taste the broth, season to taste. Squeeze lime, or trickle a little fish sauce, or put in a pinch of black pepper. If the broth is already good, skip this step.
Add the vegetable garnishes with your chopsticks, and push the greens to the bottom of the bowl to cook them slightly in the heat. Don't put the leaves in whole: tear into pieces before adding them in.
