Top Pho In Philadelphia

Philadelphia residents love Vietnamese cuisine and a lot of the Vietnamese restaurants do it very well, especially when it comes to pho. For those who are new to pho, it is a type of soup created by the Vietnamese. It's made from beef or chicken stock with spices and noodles. Thinly sliced chicken and beef are added rare and slowly cook in the steaming hot broth. It's delicious and should be tried by everyone.
