Phở Fever ... in Food

Got Pho? tshirt PhởFever (fuh-fee-ver) n. A website devoted to spreading knowledge and appreciation of Phở.

Phở was born in Northern Vietnam during the mid-1880s. The dish was heavily influenced by both Chinese and French cooking. Rice noodle and spices were imported from China; the French popularized the eating of red meat. In fact, it is believed that "phở" is derived from "pot au feu" a French soup. Vietnamese cooks blended the Chinese, French and native influences to make a dish that is uniquely Vietnamese.

Phởnatic (fa-nat-ik) n. One who loves to eat Phở. That would be me! hand up and waving emoticon
