Pho Sure!!!

On Saturday Mandy, Katie and Lindsey, brewed with excitement and rumbling stomachs, headed out on a Washington DC/NOVA adventure. The destination...Pho 75. Ideally situated between Rosslyn and Courthouse, Pho 75 serves one thing and one thing only, Pho.

Pho is a traditional Vietnamese soup served as a bowl of white rice noodles in clear beef broth, with thin cuts of beef. Variations featuring meatballs and chicken breast are also available. The dish is garnished with ingredients such a onions, coriander, Thai basil, mint, lime, bean sprouts and chili peppers. The last four items are usually provided on a separate plate, which allows customers to adjust the soup's flavor as they like. Some sauces such as hoisin sauce, and the Thai hot sauce , are popular additions as well. Pho can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Vietnamese phở restaurants usually retain the cultural practice of not delivering the bill to a customer's tables, since it is considered rude—in Vietnamese culture, it is seen as a way of trying to rush the customer out the door.

Pho was an absolute success. This restaurant definately deserved to be on Washingtonian's list of best cheap eats. The whole meal including a drink only cost each of us around $7.50. We highly encourage everyone to head out there.
