"Expect to be greeted at this local favorite by a line out the door, but inside, find a giant chandelier and clipboard with several names ahead of the free space to jot down your own. Don’t worry—that line moves quickly and you’ll be slurping up glass noodles in no time. Go with a group and order a feast; the menu, replete with regional specials, has much more to offer than one or two can possibly explore. Slurp beef or chicken pho, or go for one of the seafood soups like canh bun—crab and water spinach with thicker vermicelli noodles—a popular Northern Vietnamese dish." - Sophie Friedman
