    Hello Tyler and your Dad, pho in US are more health conscious whereas Saigon Pho are all about flavor .Also slurping in Vietnam is considered a compliment for the chef that the food was that good. Your dad looks very comfortable at that restaurant as a frequent customers.

    Dear Mr TYLER,
    The reason I Like this video A Lot because I watch this good video with my wife.
    I as weLL as my wife watch your video TWiCE because my wife is a Vietnamese LADY,
    and my wife REALLY REALLY enjoy watching your video, because my wife tells me that
    your Vietnamese pronunciation is VERY Good. My wife is Vietnamese, my parents are from
    SiNGAPORE, and I Love Vietnamese people and Vietnamese foods.
    Speaking of Vietnamese food (pho), in this video, you (Mr) TyLer are generous to give that BowL of
    Pho 6.1. The reason is: my Wife and I have been eating Pho throughout California, [more than one hundred
    Pho restaurant from the Southern California to Northern California ].
    My Vietnamese wife tells me that Pho in California wiLL never be as AUTHENTIC as Pho in Saigon and Hanoi
    in Vietnam.
    My Vietnamese wife gives Pho in California a 4 on the scale from 1 to 10.
    one more thing, the waiter (who takes your order) is not as friendly as true Vietnamese that you met in
    Sài Gòn Vietnam.
    My wife enjoys watching your videos because my Vietnamese wife thinks that you (Mr.) TYLER are
    very smart man, because it is very difficult for an American man to speak and pronounce Vietnamese WORDs
    as correctLY as you do.
    My wife and i reaLLy appreciate your polite and respectful ATTITUDE toward Vietnamese people, therefore,
    my wife and i wiLL continue to watch every single video that you make and upload on your RUclips channeL.
    Thank you TyLer for another GREAT video, you and your father have a nice day.

    If you prefer rare beef in the Phở, you should ask to put the raw beef on a separate plate. Then you put the raw beef in the bowl by yourself. Also some VNese restaurants in US that let you choose between minced or sliced beef. Hope it helps and enjoy!

I also like the sidewalk cafe's in Vietnam, sort of like you are doing here in Cali. Here in the Philly area(s), outside Vietnamese eating is a rarity. Pho tai chin with Cafe Sua Da is my favorite. Now I'm hungry....enjoy!

    Hello,Mr.Tyler. After finished watching your video. You are absolutely right about Pho 🍲 soup at pho dreams restaurant. You’re right about the soup water and the beef and the bowls sizes. I went to a lots of pho restaurants in Little Saigon in California. In my opinion that I think pho in Vietnam taste a lots better. It’s has a natural taste to it and the price is much cheaper. Oh by the way, you speaking Vietnamese language. You’re great 😊

    Hi Tyler and your dad, I haven’t watched your videos since you left Vietnam. I am happy to see both of you back again. To answer your question about the broth, I think Pho in America in general contains less beef bone than pho in Vietnam because it is costing more these days.

    It always makes me happy seeing people outside of our ethnicity love our Vietnamese food.
    You have embraced our culture beautifully and with respect. I’ve only watched a few videos and recently subscribed.
    A lil disappointed in the hospitality of the first waiter. We are normally much more gracious to those who have learned our language and embraced out culture. I’m glad the second uncle made up for it.
    I hope your show grows in subscription!! It’s wonderful content. But perhaps it’s because you make me nostalgic for the South Bay as well as hopeful I’ll get to go back to Vietnam one day to experience the sights.
    On that note - you should try this whole in the wall in Rosemead called Banh Xeo Quan. Hands down best Banh Xeo. Anthony Gold (RIP) from the LA Times rated it highly.
    I’ll even meet you up for Banh Xeo if you go. 😊

    • @carolinescroggins
      @carolinescroggins 5 месяцев назад

      Also, if you want Pho Tai Bo Vien - next time ask them to leave the beef on the side rare. But make sure the broth is boiling hot when they deliver it so you can dip the rare beef into the soup.
      Another tip - ask for green onion stalks in the oil…take a perfect bite of the pho, then follow up with a bite of the green onion stalk. Delicious. Also, ask for sliced white onions and squeeze lime all over it. Add it to your bowl of pho!! Yummy!!

    @tynguyen6649 5 месяцев назад

    You should ask for a "chén béo" or fat bowl to add to your pho for a richer/fattier flavor. In the state, we don't want more fat. Thus, the chef usually scoops the broth under the surface. The pho noodle in Vietnam is fresh. If you like a rarer sliced beef, ask for it on the side or "tái để riêng".

    Pho in the US costs 10 times more than in Vietnam. However, the number of pho each restaurant sells daily in Saigon, Hanoi and other cities in Vietnam can be 10 times higher than in the US. Therefore, the revenue from selling pho for each business household in Vietnam and the US is equal.

    I find rare beef pho is almost never rare in North America. I think it's because Westerners are scared of rare beef. I have started asking for the beef on the side, as it cooks so fast in the broth. You can find pho broth in any grocery store here in Toronto. I wonder if the resto owner just used store bought stuff? I read in food book that it's easier to find good Viet cuisine in Canada. There are a lot of Vietnamese in my city.
