I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2017…
New York was pretty lacking with good pho until this year when it seemed like a new Vietnamese spot opened every week. Probably the most well-received was the meaty version at this slightly upscale restaurant in the East Village. The broth is cooked for 16 hours and you can taste it in the rich beefy flavor. The rice noodles are just a supporting player to the filet, brisket, and the healing soup. Price: $14
