More About Pho

Pho was created during the early 20th century in northern Vietnam, in Nam Định Province, which is southeast of Hanoi. This was a major textile market back in the day. The villages of Vân Cù and Dao Cù (or Giao Cù) in Đông Xuân commune, Nam Trực District, Nam Định Province are said to be the traditional home of pho. The villagers of that time spoke that pho was supposedly eaten in Vân Cù way before it was popularized during the French colonial period.

It could be possible that dishes that were similar to pho existed in Nam Định before that. However, Trịnh Quang Dũng, the cultural historian and researcher, believes that the popularization and origins of the modern pho came from the combination of various historical and cultural factors in the early 20th century. The great availability of beef due to French demand, produced beef bones that were bought by Chinese workers. They used them to make a dish similar to pho. This dish was called “nguu nhuc phan.” Workers from the provinces of Yunnan and Guangdong supposedly demanded this dish a lot.
This was thought to be because it was similar to that of their homeland. They eventually made the dish popular and available to the general population.

Originally, pho could be purchased at dawn and dusk by roaming street vendors. They had mobile kitchens on carrying poles (gánh phở). From these poles hung two wooden cabinets. These included a cauldron over a wood fire, the other stored noodles, cookware, spices, and some space where a bowl of pho could be prepared. What’s interesting and somewhat random is that these pho vendors used disheveled felt hats called mũ phở to keep their heads warm.

The first two fixed pho stands of Hanoi were a Vietnamese-owned Cát Tường on Cầu Gỗ Street and a Chinese-owned stand in front of Bờ Hồ tram stop. During 1918, two more on Quạt Row and Đồng Row joined them. The first “Nam Định style” pho stand in Hanoi was opened around 1925 by a Vân Cù villager named Vạn. There was less Gánh phở around 1936–1946 since stationary eateries became more popular.

If you hear people asking “Where can I find pho near me?” and you don’t know exactly what pho is, here is a short description. Pho is a meal usually served in a bowl. White rice noodles are specifically cut and placed in clear beef broth, with thin cuts of beef (steak, lean flank, fatty flank, or brisket). Different variations include meatballs, tendon, tripe, etc. in southern Vietnam. Chicken pho can also be made. It is cooked using the same spices that are used when preparing beef pho. The difference is said to be that the broth is made with only chicken bones as well as meat. In addition, some internal chicken organs, for example the heart, the undeveloped eggs and the gizzard are also used.

Some of the famous pho places in Saigon before 1975 were Phở Công Lý, Phở Tàu Bay, Phở Bà Dậu, and Phở Tàu Thủy. Pasteur Street (phố phở Pasteur) was a famous street since it had beef pho, while Hien Vuong Street (phố phở Hiền Vương) was famous for its chicken pho. Today in Ho Chi Minh City, some of the notable restaurants include: Phở Hòa Pasteur and Phở 2000. One of the largest restaurant chains in Vietnam is Pho 24. It is a subsidiary of Highlands Coffee and has 20 locations abroad and 60 locations in Vietnam. In the United States the largest pho chain is Phở Hòa. It has over 70 locations in seven countries.
