    what I love is the huge chopsticks and the ladle for a spoon. I would order it just for the novelty. I was told by someone that it cost 22 bucks for the bowl.

    Pho is so overrated. They always make a huge bowl of it. All it is is seasoned water with some meat and veggies in it. Typically loaded with bean sprouts and cilantro.

    Bigger bowl = more water.

    Your life must really suck for being so negative.

    That can be said for any soup. Just some water, meat, vegetables and herbs.

    I was told that its somewhere in San Fran.

    No.......but calling it "water" does. I've made Pho broth, and--no offense (honestly)--I can't imagine a smoker being able to detect the subtle nuances in the flavor of a good Pho broth, they should at least be told that making good Pho broth is most certainly a labor of love.

    No kidding. Real pho broth is made from boiling the bones over 72 hours or something. I doubt they spend that long at the restaurants but the point is it is more than just water.
