Debunking Beer Can Chicken: A Waste Of Good Beer, And Dangerous
Up until, oh, about six to eight months ago, I stubbornly refused to eat Vietnamese food. If everyone else in the party felt like Vietnamese, I'd surrender, but not quietly, and would make it clear throughout the whole meal how much I hated what we were eating. I don't like cilantro, I don't like its combination with lime juice (which is completely ignored when eating Mexican food, of course), and I mist certainly did not like fish sauce.
However, after all that "hmph!"-ing, I must shamefully admit now that I am quite addicted to pho. There is something about the steaming hot broth that is so paradoxically refreshing in the summer, and yet so warm and comforting in the fall and winter. Though I am not afraid of beef, I never order pho with any of the sliced rare beef combinations. It might have to do with the fact that the places I've eaten pho are always tiny little dives. But even if we were in the King's castle eating pho, i'd still order the tofu pho because I love it.

I had never eaten tripe until I had it in pho, and now I get wild cravings for pho whenever I see tripe at the grocery store. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to eat pho for lunch sometime this weekend now.

One of my favorite pho houses makes shrimp and chicken versions too. I make a reasonable facsimile at home occasionally, using fresh rice noodles purchased at an asian grocery. I understand that it's eaten for breakfast in Viet Nam. I've never tried that, but it sounds good to me.
