My favorite food is 'Pho' because I can eat it in many different ways. Pho is a Vietnamese  traditional food. It contains wet rice noodles eaten with broth. You can enjoy Pho with pork, beef, chicken.  There are two types of Pho: soup and fried.

Soup Pho is more popular because cooks make it with broth by stewing bones of cows or pigs or chicken for hours. This broth makes your Pho delicious and has unique taste. I enjoy eating soup Pho because it is delicious and convenient for breakfast, lunch, dinner even supper and it is suitable  when you are sick.

            Fried Pho is also very good when you want to change your taste. Chefs fry the rice noodles with oil, meat, green onion and some pickles. I do not like fried pho very much because I do not like fatty food but it is my father’s favourite. He often has it with some pepper.

           Vietnamese Pho is quite popular to tourists. Even some chefs have registered their trademark like Pho 24, Pho Cuong, Pho Co. They are quite popular in the North of Vietnam. Visitors and customers to Vietnam often ask for Pho with beef since it is sweet and light. And many Vietnamese people are very proud of this dish.

Pho, one of the most popular traditional dishes in Vietnam, can be found everywhere - from humble street stalls to classy hotels. Rice noodles are served in a bowl of beef or chicken broth, with thin slices of beef or chicken and herbs or green onions. Pho is often accompanied by sliced lime, fresh red chilies, bean sprouts, and chili sauce. There is a saying "Don't say you have been to Hanoi if you haven't tried Pho".

Here are some standout places to taste Pho in Hanoi.

Pho Thin (13 Lo Duc Street)

The restaurant only serves one dish: Pho Bo Tai Lan (Phở Bò Tái Lăn) but it is always full of people. The special thing of Pho here is that the beef is stir-fried quickly with garlic and it is added to the noodles before the broth is poured over the top. One bowl of Pho costs 50,000 dong and you have to pay in advance.

Pho Ganh (Hang Chieu Street)

Pho Ganh is sold by a street vendor from about 3:30 a.m. to 6 a.m. at the intersection of Hang Duong Street and Hang Chieu Street. The seats for customers are just small stools beside slightly higher plastic tables. Pho Ganh is so delicious; its broth looks like pure water, but it has bold flavor of soft sliced beef. Pho Ganh is sold with quay (quẩy) and iced tea.

The broth in Pho Ganh is pure water.
