Pho 2000 Restaurant--6.10.07





Headed out for Sunday dinner with my out of town friends in Fields Corner and we hit Pho 2000. I love their food and requested to get non Pho and fresh spring rolls. This is my mom's second attempt to have Vietnamese food.

Carmelized Pork (a major fave of mine) in the pot was a big hit with my mom and it is always my fave. My friend's husband can make it, I am still waiting for the recipe! The carmelized pork sauce is delicious and great with rice. The sauce which was reduced and reduced has so much flavor! Then the seafood soup is sweet and sour and my mom enjoyed it. I liked that it was not overly spicy or overly relying on fish sauce. The blandest of the three and most unexciting is the tofu stir fry with vegetables. Though good, it did not hold a candle to the other dishes in our eyes.

Prices are reasonable, atmosphere very homey and service is decent.
