A Girl & Her Food: Pho Vortex @ Tank Noodle

Pho Vortex @ Tank Noodle


With Chicago's Polar Vortex II here, the only way to survive is with warming soups, like PHO.  Phở or pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup consisting of broth, rice noodles called bánh phở, and usually a meat like beef or chicken and herbs such as basil and cilantro.  Lately though, I have been slurping a vegetarian one with hoisin, lots of hot chili sauce and extra napkins. It's belly warming, super healthy, and clears your nasal passages. Pho is served with a side plate of garnishes generally consisting of bean sprouts, Thai basil, jalapeños, coriander leaves and lime. It makes me want to jump for joy. 



To get my fix, I head to Tank Noodle on Broadway.


How to eat Pho: 

I recommend holding your chopsticks in right hand, soup spoon in left. Sip the broth first while you work the noodles with your chopsticks. It’s OK to stick your face into the bowl while slurping.  Once the noodles are gone, raise the bowl to your lips with both hands and polish it off.

In just 15 years, the king of CrossFit has created the largest gym chain in history and turned fitness into a spectator sport. \t\"It\u0027s still a battle here in this heat.\" \t Last summer, the finals of the CrossFit games were broadcast on ESPN. Forty five thousand people showed up to watch contestants who looked like superheroes heave, jump, and lift until a champion was crowned.

This is due to the CO rich atmosphere which, along with thick clouds of sulfur dioxide, generates the strongest greenhouse effect in the Solar System. Above the dense CO layer, thick clouds consisting mainly of sulfur dioxide and sulfuric acid droplets scatter about 90% of the sunlight back into space.
