I CAN MAKE PHO! The question now is.......

Your story was very entertaining! I too am a Pho-aholic and could eat it almost everyday. I live in Leesburg, and have been very disappointed by the local Xuan Saigon... not as good as many others out there. One of the best that I have tried with a great rich broth is made in Falls Church/Merrifield at a restaurant called Pho Cyclo. A tasty tidbit of information they shared about their recipe is that they ROAST/CHAR the bones and onions before adding the water to make the pho broth. The roasting brings out the intense flavors and gives the broth a rich darkness to it that you cannot get no matter how much meat you add. Good Luck!
