Yeah I don't usually get the soup.

Pho Thai Son is not what it used to be. I don't go there anymore.

Pho in Surrey? As good as you make it seem, I would not go anywhere over the Patullo or Port Mann Bridge for pho.

Here in Toronto, on the other hand, a few minutes away from my hotel at Spadina and Dundas is Pho 88 which is pretty good. Their "house special" is nothing like what we get in Vancouver. It's missing a tonne of the meats but damn, the noodles are perfect and the soup is wicked, however loaded with MSG galore.

I had pho everyday for about 5 days in paris 2 weeks ago. I lived near the Chinatown (which is really more cambodian/laos/burma influence). The pho broth i had there was very clear - kinda like Pho Tam in surrey where you taste only one clear flavor instead of a mumbo jumbo of spice flavors.
I had heard and read from many that Paris pho is the best in the world as the viet/burma/cambodia ppl fled here during the civil wars and learned to cook Pho in French ways but I could not appreciate anything noticeably French about the Pho. Here is a picture though:

Went to Le Do on Hastings today and thought it was pretty good. Spring rolls were delicious and service was good. The younger waitress girl was pretty cute but I was kinda thrown off because she had dark tanned skin and looked like a Brazilian girl or something haha. Good thing I went right before noon because the place started to get packed around 12:15-12:30

Yes they opened in the Plaza at Garden City and Alderbridge. The plaza where the old Hot Shots used to be. But the Tai Son is located on the North side of the plaza near the back part.

^What the fuck is up with your avatar? I think the Pho Hong he's talking about is the one in Burnaby right in front of Wedy's and beside the Chrysler dealership. That place is shit. Seriously. It's fucking terrible.

You like Hello Kitty better?

Okay I know which one you're talking about. It's expensive, the interior is drab but the girls who work there can be pretty hot.
