This is very famous, not only in Vietnam but in all Vietnamese restaurants, all around the world. However, having the Pho in Vietnam, in its homeland, is a whole new experience. The noodle soup is a brilliant dish and is made differently depending on which part of Vietnam you are tasting it in. In Hanoi, which is the birthplace of this dish, the French broth the noodle is served in has excellent flavours that come about during the process of simmering. In Saigon, the dish is a little bit different and has a richer flavour served with sweet and hot condiments and tasteful herbs. You can order Pho with chicken or beef.
