Further Adventures in Ethnic Cuisine

It's been a very busy weekend, but we had time to try out a Phở restaurant in Pomona for lunch today. Phở is the signature Vietnamese beef noodle soup which we have been meaning to try for a while now. (The wiki site will play the correct pronunciation of this soup which isn't foe.)

Phở Ha, in the 600 block of S. Indian Hill, was very busy when we arrived, but we had quick service and chose the fresh spring rolls for appetizers. This was followed by the Phở Ga - or the chicken noodle soup. It reminded me a bit of Gramma's chicken noodle soup, although the noodles were much thinner and longer, and then I added the cabbage with cilantro and squirted some lime juice on it which gave it a different twist. The "regular" size is HUGE, and I took half of it home for lunch tomorrow.

We decided that the taste of Kogi BBQ is much better, but we will come back to this restaurant to try out the sandwiches sometime.
