If you do Pho, do you Pho with a spoon or a fork or both?

Chopsticks and spoon. I'm a lefty, so chopsticks in the left hand, spoon in the right.

Oh -- and just don't dump a basil stalk into the soup -- shred a couple of leaves and put them in. Also -- never put in bean sprouts; they cool down the broth quickly and screw it up.

Damn -- it's getting to be close to lunchtime here...
 
What the pho ? A fourchette?

Love a good beef pho, but it does make you sweat if it isn't winter. Not sure if I would want it in a tropical jungle setting.
 
First time I ever had pho was with @jaxn slim and his missus. Loved it. We have a really good pho place downtown in Findlay Market but it's hours aren't reliable. Still if I end up down there I always check to see if they're open.
 
I learned to eat with chopsticks when I worked with guys who liked to eat at a Pho place that didn’t have spoons or forks.
 
My Vietnamese co-worker introduced me to Pho and sour sop.

He was honest about the different kinds of Pho. So, he's still considered a friend. :grin:

"That's tripe. You won't eat it."

We have a bit of a regional chain around here that's pretty good.

That picture above is actually a Costco Pho that comes frozen and you add water and nuke it.
It's not great, but it's pretty good. It'll do when you can't get out to a good Pho restaurant.
 
I am proficient in my chopstick usage from my many trips to Asia for work and a 6 month stint when I lived in Japan. I can use chopsticks in either hand.
