Pho Hoa Noodle House @ The Curve

R0010179

Loitering around the Curve on a manic Monday, Lern and I felt indolent that we can't decide what to have for dinner but a simple yet decent dinner. Pho Hoa Noodle Soup was the answer key to what we were seeking for. By the way, hola from Malaysia! It definitely feels great to be home but I do not hope this trip gives me shocking weight. Let's keep fingers crossed.

Pho Hoa Noodle House, a name that basically explains everything. Pho Hoa is the place that offers simple fare and hearty bowl of Vietnamese national soup or commonly known as Pho. Hoa, on the other hand refers to harmony in Vietnamese. It is also the largest Vietnamese restaurant chain in North America but not Vietnam, strange enough?

Pho Hoa promotes Vietnamese cuisine with the slogan ''Health Conscious Choice'' and since Lern is a health-conscious person who loves anything with green, we have absolutely made the right choice for dinner. When the noodle is served with fresh coriander leaves, bean sprouts, hot chili padi, lemon wedges and basil leaves, I bet he must be chuckling. Heh, did you?

I am person who strongly against anything with green as they taste real bad (especially coriander leaf!) Radically, mixing fresh coriander leaves, bean sprouts, bits of hot chili padi, lemon wedges and basil leaves can essentially make the broth robustly flavoured. I truly love the pho of his! Chunks of juicy tendon bathed in the hot steaming soup were soft and tender, just like how it should be.

I opted chicken meat instead since I wasn't in the mood for beef. Well you know, when you had too much beef overseas (not exactly!) you just don't wish to have it in malaysia. The broth was clear, rich and flavourful (I still prefer Lern's)

Overall, we both love this place, especially the broth! Simple fare yet delectable, simple setting with no frills and free from extravagance, pho hoa definitely deserves second visit.

taufulou,
Agreed! The settings in tropicana mall are more inviting compared to the curve.
