Best pho

Hai Yen

If a good bowl of Chicken Noodle warms the body, soothes during sickness and satisfies the soul, the bowl of Pho Dac Biet at Hai Yen might save lives. It’s a tasty melange of tender cuts of beef brisket, beef flank, meatballs, bible tripe, tendon, rice noodles and scallions floating in a light beef broth, accompanied by a plate of fresh-cut sweet basil, sawtooth-shaped cilantro, a mound of bean sprouts, a wedge of lime and small yin-yang dollops of spicy Sriracha (garlic chili sauce) and plummy Hoisin.
