Quick Eats – Pho Cafe

Mar28

Restaurant: Pho Cafe

Location:2841 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90026

Date: February 2, 2018

Cuisine: Vietnamese

Rating: Excellent Pho

_

After our bike ride (and Bicycle Cafe stop) Sebastian and I went to Silverlake for some Pho.

Unassuming entrance right next to Silverlake Ramen.

Minimal interior.

The menu.

Gotta have these.

Banh Xeo. Vietnamese crepe with shrimp, charbroiled lemongrass steak, mushroom, bean sprouts, side of fresh herbs, rice paper wrap.

Comes with the sauce and the usual fresh herbs.

The the rice paper wraps.

You soften up those things and wrap up the “crepe” (which is more like an omelet) and have some delicious stuff.

Herbs for the pho.

Pho Tai Gan Bo Vien. Beef rice noodle soup with slices of filet mignon steak, tendon, meat balls, and a side of fresh herbs. A very nice Pho, almost as good as the typical in Vietnam level. Lots of soup and hard to eat as Pho always is.

Pho Chay. Vegetable rice noodle soup with tofu, mushrooms, bok choy, and a side of fresh herbs.

Some solid Pho and lots of other good home style stuff.
