There had been several instances where a co-worker or business saleman asked me what ethnicity I am.
And as soon as I responded I am a Vietnamese they would response “Do you like Pho?” and proceed on describing how they like Pho. FYI I live in a town with one or maybe two Vietnamese restaurants so I was surprised.
Every time I hear those responses it makes me want to quit my job and open a Pho restaurant.

Talking about that, at my university, there were only one Pho restaurant near campus 3 yr ago. Now, there is like 4 pho restaurant. Even a Chinese fast food "Village Wok" use to serve pho (very bad though).

Vietnamese people ask me that when they find out I'm My Lai (usually after they ask me if I can speak Vietnamese). I've never been asked that [Do you like Pho?] by a non-Viet.

Wow what campus did you go to?

they alway say " i love pho", and i really enjoy it, since my family used to have a pho restaurant
i love it too, man, im been eating it for 18 years, still love it

I just had pho several hours ago (my mom cooked it). Nothing is better than eating a bowl of hot boiling pho on a cold windy autumn night. In fact, I'm going to have another bowl in about 2 hours

yum slice beef

pho tai bo vien

There is one place that sell pho where I live and they charge $7.5-8 dollars a bowl depend on how much meat you want. And it tasted crappy too but it better than nothing.

You're making me hungry.

i get that alot. once they asked me what national origin im from, the first thing out of their mouth is am i from bayou (a little fishing town near where i live that alot of vietnamese people live). then they tell me how much they love pho and eat at a pho restuarant every weekend.

I gather you look more Mỹ than Việt ... that's why they ask you if you could speak Vietnamese

I find it really annoying how the singer Mạnh Quỳnh claims he's mixed too but he doesn't look mixed at all! I think he's just saying that because Phi Nhung is mixed and she's so popular.

Anyone happend to know the best pho place in San Francisco?
Sometime this month I may have to go there for a business conference.

I'm not crazy about Phở. To me it's just another of hundreds other Vietnamese dish. I did not know Vietnamese American and other asians/whites are crazy about Pho until I came to USA.

Be truthful is Pho better in Vietnam or in the US?

I have to say Phở in Việt Nam is way better. But I like the bún riêu cua a lot more.

Haha I like the name of the restaurant....

Pho shizzle ma nizzle...

Remind me of Snoop Dogg's...

When the pimp's in the crib ma

This question I have asked a year ago but never got a answer.
Is spring or summer roll come from Vietnam?
This is favorite dish.

what is spring or summer roll? you mean bánh cuốn? yea bánh cuốn is Vietnamese.

you sure? thais have it too?
and i thought it was called goi cuon?

theirs is more like chả giò

Pho is clearly overrated. In the north, it's king. In the south, it's a general among many generals. In the central region, bun bo is king while pho is just a captain.

In the US it is Vietnamese hamburger.

I think it's because it's easier to make good pho than to make good bun bo and also because there're lots of Bac people abroad.

most Viets in usa are southern Vietnamese. I haven't seen a Bac Ky here yet.

theres a big nothern vietnamese community in new orleans. well ues to be. most have moved over to west bank.

Where do you live? I used live in a place where the Viet are mostly catholic and a bunch of them have a Bac Ky accent.

what does the korean characters on the picture say?

1 dish, shrimp row, sause, good taste.

It said Viet Food = Da Best.

Didn't you ask to translate the Korean characters?

which one is right? yours or Nha Le's?

What do you think?

none

You are bad. Fine.

We will just wait for a truthful Korean person to come in here to translate it for us.

lol

Translation: Korean style spring rolls. Now with 25% more dog meat.

people do that all time. especially to asian people for some reason. "i had _____ before. i like it. you like it??"
annoying

Can you translate the picture for us?

lol I know. people are just being polite But if I hate something I won't say I like it


she did

it says shrimp, rice noodle (pho), green onion/scallion, onion

oops sorry...you did not post that.shortfused did. OH MY GOD I'm so sorry.

thats the type of spring rolls i usually eat.

oh okay. i didn't see the picture. why would you trust shortfused when he/she is not korean? O_o

lol all I know is he's not Vietnamese (never seen him in Vietnamese chat) I thought he was Korean and I thought the picture was a joke about Korean.
