For most of my childhood I can remember there being pho on the table nearly every lunch time. Living in a Vietnamese household you do learn a thing or two about the nation's cuisine, especially pho being the most loved and iconic dish of them all.
With a recent trip to Hoi An, we were having a serious case of pho-fever...no no, don't worry, I don't mean some contagious illness, just that we were getting a taste of authentic pho and we were still ready for more. Pho Le was recommended by a friend and we went with few expectations. Many so-called pho places in HK will do it with as much effort as they would with instant noodles, which is a shame as pho is meant to be a clean dish, full of flavour and give you that wholesome feeling.

I have to say that even my mother would approve of the pho at this restaurant and that's no mean feat, let me tell you! The broth was full of flavour, you could taste the beef and pepper and so refreshing to the point where you could just drink it by itself and be happy. The pho itself was just right, soft and lightly chewy. I find many other restaurants will make a mess of the pho by being too soft and it just breaks apart or too chewy and you feel quite laboured eating it. The meatballs were delicious and the beef was soft and succulent; perfect with a little drop of sriracha sauce.

This time we tried the garlic butter wings and they were ok, but nothing special to be honest.

Previously, we tried the rice rolls, but I found them to be quite plain and the wrap was cold and chewy so they were probably pre-prepared and left out for a while.
