I like to have everything in my pho. All the meats you can get in a bowl. So I always pick a pho with most meat in it. Usually it's a combo with meatball. And that's exactly what I ordered today. Bean sprout, cilantro and sliced of onion were served before the noodle. I was surprised because onion was sliced very thick. There were uneven big chucks of onion pieces. It may just be the owner's preference but I am not used to thick slices of onion in a bowl of pho. It was still good. I am not that picky. I'm usually cool with many things my friends find disappointing. Then I was served a bowl noodle. A bowl of noodle with probably half the portion of meat compare to other pho restaurants around. There were right amount of tripe but barely anything else. I asked server if I was served the right menu. She confirmed it was. I searched for meatballs. She told me to stir it around to look for them. I found 2 pieces of quarter meat ball. Then I looked for other slices of meats. There were one slice of tiny tendon and couple bits of meat slice. And that was all. I literally had to fish to find small scraps of meat. I hope it was a mistake. I won't return to find out but I hope other people prove it was just a mistake the cook made once. I hope this restaurant do well. I'm sure they will. I saw plenty of customers there today. I hope it was just me who was unlucky.
