PHỞ LANTERN
KITCHEN

A family table on a busy street. Broth, herbs and patience.

Phở bò

Phở bò

Our grandmother simmered beef bones for fourteen hours with charred ginger and star anise. We still do, every night, in the same pot.

Gia đình · Family

Three generations,
one pot.

We came from Huế with a handwritten recipe book and opened this room so the neighborhood could eat the way we eat at home. The lanterns were a gift from our first regulars, and every year a few more get hung from the ceiling.

Grandmother still tastes the broth every afternoon. Mother runs the dining room. The grandkids fold fresh rolls after school and argue about who makes them tighter.

Nước dùng · The broth

Fourteen hours,
every night.

The pot goes on in the afternoon and the broth is ready by morning. It's the same process our grandmother used, in the same pot she carried over, and it's why the soup tastes the way it does.

What should I order the first time?

Phở bò tái and a plate of fresh rolls. If you like heat, try the bún bò Huế from our home city.

Do you have vegetarian dishes?

Yes. Our phở chay uses a mushroom and charred-onion broth, and there's a tofu bánh mì and vegetarian rolls.

Is the broth gluten-free?

The broth and rice noodles are naturally gluten-free. Ask us about sauces, as hoisin contains wheat.

Can I take broth home?

Yes, by the quart, with noodles and herbs packed separately so nothing gets soggy.
