This Soup is Pho Real!

I finally made it back to An Choi to taste this infamous Pho of theirs... 12 hour broth, grandma's recipe... all sounds amazing, now how does it taste? A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I ordered the Chicken Pho and Leonard ordered the Beef. The beef has some really interesting tastes going on, cloves, cinnamon even... really unique... but the Chicken blew me away! It has a nice clean taste but the flavour runs deep! And the condiments that come where ON, fresh jalapenos (which are usually missing on the east coast), coriander and this awesome one I've never seen before called culantro, or thorny coriander! This is my new favourite pho!
