The Church of Pho

Two things me and my husband agree on are:  (1) we love to eat the Vietnamese soup called Pho and (2) we are not fond of church on Sundays.  We decided to start our own religious tradition called "The Church of Pho."  Since our son was a newborn, we have spent many a Sunday morning dining at Le's Pho, which is located at 4925 North Broadway.  We start with the shrimp spring rolls (divine!) and then we each get an order of "Number 1," which is the beef version of pho.  So so so so so good!!!!!!!  The broth is light yet flavorful.  The noodles are cooked to perfection.  The thin slices of beef are tender and moist.  I love to add some lime, basil leaves, and bean sprouts to it as well (this comes on the side as part of the meal).  If you have never tried pho, head to Le's.  You won't be disappointed.  It is the best pho in the city as far as I am concerned.  Here is a picture of my bowl of pho, prior to adding the accoutrements.
 
As Rachel Ray would say, "Yummo!"  (Does anyone else find her slightly annoying????)  Happy slurping!  Until next time, SAHM.
