i read this book on an empty stomach - i am not a smart person. THERES. SO. MUCH. FOOD. haha.
and ive never actually had pho before, but now im super interested in trying it! so theres one positive for this book.
some more positives would be everything about the vietnamese culture, the own voices storytelling, baos gentleness, linhs drive, the easy-going writing, and the super cuteness of it all.
my only minor critique would be the slow pacing and long length - its just not a good combination as it felt like it dragged down an otherwise light story.
but other than that, this book will have you smiling and your stomach grumbling.
� 3.5 stars

I had pho all the time in Vietnam, they sell it everywhere even on the side of the road (with a small table, you kneel (no chair)) !
Pho 🍲 is life 🤣. I think I could live of it. Please do try it.
I love pho too! Just thinking of it now makes my mouth water :D
The first line of your review reminded me of the time when I was watching this anime called Food Wars and I'd just get so hungry watching all the delicious food being made lol
kaitlyn - it is! its super sweet!kaela - hahaha. okay okay. you convinced me! :P
electra - that sound amazing! i would love to travel there one day!
nova - omg. i had no idea so many people pho so much! hehe.
smiley - ahhh! sorry to make you hungry! lol.
sutapa - i understand. i cant watch cooking/food shows when im hungry for that very reason.
I hope you'll get a chance to eat ph� sometime - it tastes really good! :D
This book made me crave Pho.
if you try pho make sure to add some hoisin sause and some sriracha for spice!!
