A Phở’ed Up Challenge
Phở is becoming quite the sensation nowadays, especially around the Bay Area and in parts of Southern California (Skip MidCal, its almost nonexistent there). The noodle soup originated as a traditional Vietnamese dish, with rice noodles and beef broth. Add in a bunch of random thinly cut meat like steak and brisket, probably a lot of artificial flavoring, and you have yourself some Phở, man.
Now it’s good and all, but this isn’t entirely the focal point of my post. You’ve probably heard about those steak challenges in Texas, well, a restaurant in San Francisco called Pho Garden has a similar challenge. Instead of a giant cut of cow meat, replace it with 2 pounds of noodles and 2 pounds of various meat. Basically 3 Large “normal” bowls into one.
Bowl doesn’t look very big, does it? Let’s put some more relative objects into perspective…
This, my friends, is not the expression of victory or accomplishment. This is what you look like promptly before going into a MSG-overdose induced seizure. But you know that in the end, it was all well worth it.
