| During the last 2 – 3 years, at the location of Dam Sen Park on Hoa Binh Street, there has been a Pho restaurant with continuous influx and outflow of customers. That is Dam Sen Pho restaurant. People can see that customers of the restaurant are mainly from Districts 5, 6, 10, 11; especially, among which are many people of Chinese origin – who are inherently very fastidious in enjoying a certain dish! It seems that, together with other names of Pho 24, Pho 2000..., from now on, people in Ho Chi Minh City will know and keep mentioning about Dam Sen Pho! So, how so special is the restaurant that it can attract such a great number of customers? |

Situated conveniently right on Hoa Binh Street, the restaurant induces a comfortable and cozy feeling thanks to the pretty airy and friendly space with clean and tidily arranged inox-made sets of tables and chairs.
The restaurant considers the food safety and hygiene as the first priority, thus, sodium glutamate is not used here. However, the deliciousness and sweetness of Pho is not lessened because of that. On the contrary, with its own recipe, the restaurant can satisfy even the most choosy customers: soft rice noodle which is tough enough, not friable, not smashed, not sour and does not make the broth unclear; thin cuts of meat which are sweet-smelling, soft, not tough, fresh in color, not dark and must be very thinly sliced; enough spices... And the most special is the broth. Ms. Phung Thuy Loan, the manager, revealed that: “The broth for Pho is stewed from beef bones on brazier in 36 hours before use and the secret is to preserve a little of the previous broth to avoid the tastelessness”.

Bowls of Pho brought to the customers are arranged in an eye-catching way: white and clear noodle, the broth shaking with the light yellow of bee’s honey; large thin slices of cooked beef, crispy flank on the surface; some fresh green flowers made from spring onion; 2-3 fresh spring onion leaves; some golden silk-like ginger strings; a few slices of red chili a branch of basil; a little pepper… All those things will make customers feel desired for food just at a glance! While eating, customers can put in some drops of lemon juice and taste to enjoy all sweet, salty, sour, peppery, meaty and greasy flavors dissolving in the mouth! |
At first, the restaurant was born from the purpose of introducing a fast, delicious, nutritious and suitable dish to Vietnamese people. Gradually, a different idea was formed about changing the restaurant into a place only for Pho in the future. Surely, with these initial accomplishments, Dam Sen Pho will become one of famous trade names and have enough ability to bring fame to the traditional Pho right in Ho Chi Minh City and elsewhere!
