Winter has arrived and so has my craving for steaming hot bowls of soup. If your sentiment is as mine, here’s a simple appeasement, pho, specifically from Pho Hong Phat. Pho is Vietnamese for noodle soup. Although far from average tasting, it consists of a delicious broth, rice noodles, herbs, and meat. The combination of these ingredients results in an exquisitely tasty bowl of not so traditional “noodle soup”. My words cannot express the unique flavor, so why not let your taste buds do the enlightening.
I usually order the chicken pho and add all of the following, that are always provided, but optional to use: bean sprouts, basil, cilantro, jalapeños, extra lime, pho sauce and Sriracha. If you like beef order the brisket or flank pho and for you vegetarians and veggie-lovers, vegetable or tofu pho. While you wait, order the chicken spring rolls as an appetizer, they are superb!
PHO HONG PHAT is located at 6180 Wurzbach Road, San Antonio, TX 78238 and if you want to order to go call 210 523-288. Also, it is important to mention that you can BYOB.
