Dot Com Pho - Pho Viet Edition

written by John Chow on November 15th, 2008

For this week’s Dot Com Pho, we headed to Pho Viet in Richmond. Pho Viet is the first Pho restaurant to open in Richmond. For nearly two years, they were the only place you can go to for a bowl of Pho. Now a days, Pho Viet has a lot of competition from other Pho restaurants but they can still create a line up on a busy Saturday afternoon.

Pho Viet is the only Pho restaurant in the Lower Mainland to give you the definition of Pho on their window. It reads, “Pho means you’ll get a delicious wholesome meal in a bowl at a reasonable price.”

For the Pho Viet edition of Dot Com Pho, we have National PHOlanthropy Day, Pho menu #1, Ice Coffee failure, the gadget of the week, Twitter shout outs, the world coming to an end and a whole lot more. Next week, Dot Com Pho will be returning to Pho Lan. See you there!

Greg, who wants to be a real boy some day, fails at holding a video camera. Haha. His portion is so shaky and he’s got his finger on the lens for a good chunk of it.

And you have a typo for my URL during the Twitter shoutouts. It’s btr.michaelkwan.com and not brt.michaelkwan.com. And you have a typo for Stephen’s blog in the credits too! heh.

Oh well. And ya, Greg is really bad at holding the Flip steady. I wasn’t able to use his footage from the Blink Media party.

There was only 1 pho place in Richmond for years?
I should have opened one!

Pho #1 is like a burger with everything on it.
And the really big bowl is called “The Train”
Can’t believe you guys dare to eat tendon and tripe!

It’s more like an EATMORE bar, consisting of everything that fell down or around the counter, scooped up, and called a “House Special”. Takes more than that to kill me :lol:

Similar trend here in Denver; few/no options a couple years ago, but lots of options today.

These Pho videos have been a highlight of my weeks when available. Since the arcade post, have been running through shoutouts every time. It is a good way to get a snapshot of what’s happening.

Sounds like a nice meal. We have a lot of Vietnamese restaurants here in Australia, and the food they serve is allways of great quality.

It’s interesting. I’m in Melbourne and there is a suburb called Richmond, where there’s a street full of vietnamese shops and restaurants. I take it your Richmond’s the one in Canada.
