I had pho recently but one of my sister's bitch friends ate my spicy order so I was left with what she'd ordered, extra mild with a bunch of plum sauce mixed in. It was literally* worse than being raped and subsequently reliving the trauma when testifying against the rapist at trial.

I know this vietnamese guy who brings his own fish sauce to put in his pho in case the restaurant doesn't have any and I can't help but think "wow, that is a very vietnamese thing to do"

Not many good ones though. I used to live by a whole in the wall that was always full of Vietnamese people and that place had bombastic pho. I've been to a lot of places with mediocre pho though too. It's easy to tell the difference though: "Is the average customer communicating with the owner in a language I don't understand?" If yes then you probably found a good place, if not then it probably sucks.

this one in chinatown, I think it's called tau bai or something. the pho was pretty good and like $7 so just deal with the lack of fish sauce imo

For the most part yeah but I have been to a place or two that really seasoned their broth weirdly.

It's easy to tell the difference though: "Is the average customer communicating with the owner in a language I don't understand?" If yes then you probably found a good place, if not then it's probably a westernized chain.

maybe it's just an SF thing, but it's also weird that there's a giant rear end ramen craze lately. yet i've ate it a bunch of times and each time i'm just thinking "id rather be eating pho right now". i don't get it what's so good about it.
