My wife and I came here today, it was our first time. I loved the vermicelli bowl. My wife ordered the pho and did not like it. Not because it was bad, she just wasnt used to the flavors. The staff was extremely understanding and we were able to get her something else. I was very happy with the customer service, they were wonderful and the food was great!!
We tried Pho 813 Orlando for the first time and loved everything about it! The staff and new owners were so kind and attentive. The chicken wings were juicy and big, and the fresh spring rolls were the perfect size and so fresh! We had a grilled beef vermicelli bowl, and every bite was yummy - the veggies and pickled dikon and carrots added the perfect crunch. We also had wonton noodle soup, which was the star of lunch. The broth was so flavorful, you can tell a lot of love was put into it. We will be back for more, 100% recommend!
I’ve had virtually every banh mi in Orlando at this point, and this is definitely in the top tier of what I’ve had! All the meats were high quality, the veggies were fresh, and the housemade pate and mayo were perfect! The baguette wasn’t quite crusty enough, but it was still quite good. Overall I was very very happy, and I would be thrilled to dine here again in the future!
I’ve eaten here a few times already 💫 Every dish hits different but my #1 favorite is Thai noodle soup (bún thái) — spicy, flavorful broth loaded with toppings 🔥 If you’re a fan of sour & spicy, you have to try this one. Grilled pork spring rolls and shrimp & pork spring rolls are super fresh, and the dipping sauce is literally addictive 😋 Southern-style pho is rich, sweet, and super comforting 🇻🇳 Vietnamese grilled pork banh mi? Crispy outside, juicy inside, with pickled veggies — best one in Orlando, no cap 🥖🔥 Other dishes like satay noodle soup, wonton soup, crispy chicken, fried egg rolls, and fish noodle soup all bussin’ 💯 generous portions, good price 👌 Oh and don’t sleep on the Thai green milk tea — creamy, strong flavor, 10/10 💚 Staff here are so friendly and attentive, service on point 💕 Space is modern, clean, comfy tables, perfect spot for lunch or casual dinner 🍜 Overall, this place is a total gem — 10/10 food, 10/10 service, 10/10 vibe 😍
This place is under new management. Took the fam for late lunch & we all left full & very happy. The food portion is very reasonable & has plenty of meat. 👌🏼 I ordered the vermicelli (posted pic) & the fam ordered the rare steak phó. Our server was very attentive and place was clean. I recommend this place.
Me and my wife had the pleasure of going to this amazing Pho 813 for a dinner date yesterday and love the food and the atmosphere. The staff was amazing and very helpful 10/10 must try again.
The service was top notch. My wife couldn't decide and the server sat walked her through several ideas and she finally ordered the bun vermicelli sliced pork and she loved it. I ordered the beef stew and it was absolutely delicious. We got spring rolls and they were fabulous. The atmosphere was absolutely amazing and the servers were very attentive and amazing. Thank you.
Amazing hands down First time at this location and food and service was wonderful. Food was very tasty and delicious and large portions will definitely come again. My server name was Sharen she was pleasant and sweet!
The food is delicious here 10/10. The food has a lot of flavor and the atmosphere is cozy and quiet ! I enjoyed it and will be back!
One of the best Vietnamese food in Orlando. Going Costco so many times. Passed by this restaurant so many times and finally gave it a try and hands down. Excellent
The broken rice plate with the pork is really good! Shoutout to our server Dennis for giving great recommendations and being kind! Excited with this place
From the start the service was exceptional with Dennis being very welcoming and deliberate in describing the menu which made it easy for us to choose the right meals to enjoy!

Great experience. We enjoyed a family meal Sunday night. Big portions and bigger flavors. Great service from a friendly staff. The new owners are great. We will be back every time we are in Orlando.
The best Pho place my husband & I have been too! Our server Dennis was amazing, food was fast, delicious & hot! We will absolutely be back!!
Dining in at around 8:55 prior the closing time just about 5mins and ordered Bun Bo Hue. They were happy to welcome me and never rush. Perfect service, good food and highly recommend.
Our family tried Pho 813 today and it was amazing. We absolutely loved the food and the atmosphere is welcoming and beautiful. Staff is incredible and friendly. We will definitely be back.
The pho was great. The pork eggrolls were very delicious. I’ll most likely come back and try their other menu items.
Service by Subin was amazing and the food was sooo good. We got the vermicelli bowl and the broken rice dish. The restaurant was also very beautiful and clean inside
Restaurant is well designed and very welcoming. Our server Dennis was very attentive and informative. Definitely recommend to come and try it out.
Love this place! Waiter was so nice and attentive, the chicken pho had so much flavor will definitely be a regular!
It was our first time here and Dennis was very friendly and helped us out with the menu. Inside is very nice. Definitely should give this place a chance!
Even though I live 2 hours away, I came here two times this week already because the food is just that good. Please try the bún Thái. You will not regret it!!!
This is always one of our favorite pho place in Orlando area! We love the sandwiches and pho. Their service is great!!😊
Delicious food, amazing service. We had the vegetarian pho and it was very authentic.
outstanding Pho noodles soup!!! as a vietnamese, it’s not easy for me to feel “wowwww” with any Pho restaurants but this Pho is kinda one of a kind. a must try!
Came here before re-opening and has been the best pho in Orlando. After the reopening they are still the best in Orlando hands down.
Dennis and Subi were real cool. They helped us with our orders and we're really chill to talk to even though we were being goofy.
Great re grand opening, the egg rolls were spectacular and the won ton noodle soup is a nice addition to the menu
Amazing food spot! What a gem, Dennis was so kind and helpful, the food was delicious, service was fast and the place was so clean.
Food is really tasty and the atmosphere is great. I like how relaxed the dining experience is.
Best pho in town, no fake MSG flavor. Servers Sharron and Jamie were great.
Food was really good and didn't wait too long and everything was fresh. Tommy is the best.
i love this place. the pho’s broth is so good and i love the atmosphere. its chill.
Delicious food. Restaurant is beautiful and Subin provide us a great service :)
Great little place, great food, the pho and wonton were amazing.
One of the best ever. Well done..Great food great service.
Absolutely delicious. Service was friendly, professional, and excellent. I was just driving by and decided to try this place on a whim as I'm from out of state, hungry from travelling and we don't have Vietnamese food in my area at home. I felt a little bad, as it was 8:30 and they close at 9. Everyone was friendly and assured me it was ok to dine in. The Bun Thai (H2) was fantastic. Piping hot. Savory, slightly sour, with a tiny bit of sweetness. If you like spicy, this is the one to get. Like the perfect amount of spicy heat. Tingle your tongue, but not constant burn. Vermicelli noodles were perfect. The vegetables were cooked perfectly with a slight al dente texture. I ended up with leftovers for lunch, and after microwaving them, my hotel room smells delicious. It's just as delicious the next day. I'll be back again before I leave town.
The restaurant is beautiful, and the staff is very nice! The food is also amazing. I loved their Thai green tea - it was so good. They also have great iced Vietnamese coffee. The pho is so yummy, and the summer rolls are good too!!
We are so glad to see this restaurant open. They have terrific pho. Noodles are just perfect doneness. Not too soft EVER! Just right. But the real star is the broth; we have tasted beef, chicken and vegetable broths. They are each unique but equally rich and delicious. Service is excellent - last night we had a party of 7 and the staff was both helpful and prompt. If we needed water they were there ready at hand with it. We needed explanation on a new soup we tried and really appreciated the explanation. Mostly we finished dinner last night with 7 very satisfied folks. Really glad to see them open. We’ll be back as frequent diners!!!!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pho 813 and it was an exceptional experience! The moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly by our servers, Dennis and Subin, who provided outstanding service throughout our meal. Their attentiveness and genuine friendliness made us feel welcome and well taken care of. Now, let's talk about the food—it was simply the best pho I’ve ever tasted! The broth was rich and flavorful, with just the right balance of spices. Each bowl was generously filled with fresh ingredients, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. We also tried some appetizers, and they were equally delightful. Dennis and Subin were knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations, making our dining experience even better. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it an ideal spot for both casual dining and special occasions. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for delicious pho and exceptional service. I can't wait to visit again!
Great dining space and amazing food. The fried chicken was so flavorful, so crunchy and juicy at the same time. Grilled pork on rice and bun bo hue are best in town, bun thai is a must try! I wish there was Vietnamese food this good when I used to live in Orlando. Its quite a drive for me now but totally worth it. 100% recommend, will not disappoint.
Come in tonight to grab some quick Togo and it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Dennis and Subin were amazing. They were very patient and went through each menu item with me to clarify what each dish came with. And the food was one of the best and authentic Vietnamese food I’ve ever had in Orlando. I ended up getting the broken rice with pork chop and it was probably the best decision I’ve ever made. The pork chop was tender and juicy. I will definitely be back and recommend this to anyone in Orlando.
Came across this place driving by and decided to have Pho on this freezing cold evening. Walking in was a delight to the eye very clean and taken care of and was greeted by Chris very nice and polite gentleman, he sat us quickly and was very helpful with menu and choosing the in the mood for dish. I personally got the pho combination with is 3 different meats very very delicious Chris recommended this as I asked what would be best and it was a great choice he offered me to try. Alongside Chris his work colleague Ivy was very very attentionized to my table and made sure I was taken care of the entire time alongside Chris as well. Ivy and Chris always kept a smile on they're faces and was very pleasant to deal with very very well manored and made the visit pleasing and enjoyful. If you guys are im the area and wanting to try Pho 813 definitely give it a shot very very good. Thank you Chris and Ivy!!

The quality of the meats on the pho especially the brisket was outstanding. My main feedback is that the pho broth leaned heavily toward sweet, and I would have preferred a more savory balance. The accompanying vegetable plate was quite small, I ended up needing to ask for a second plate, as it was smaller than the standard portion offered at similar restaurants.

Sub in was so kind and helpful. The pho was delicious and so were the egg rolls
Dont like the ordering system, but the food is awesome!
I was a weekly frequent customer at the old pho 813 under the old management I suppose. I went to their grand re opening on Saturday, ironically I was their first customer. Food is still amazing, but prices went up and the portion were less. Service was a bit slower than usual, but it was their first day, so I totally understand. I do miss David, the old sever. I don’t mind the up charge but fill up the bowl or return to the old bigger bowl. Staff were super friendly and attentive. But I really miss David. Can you all please bring David back ?😔
Late lunch 11/1/25: Phở 813 Eating out to celebrate November is my excuse today since I have been trying to cook more often at home to save money. 😂 I seldom go to Vietnamese restaurants because I cook Vietnamese food often at home. So when I review the cuisines, it's whether it's worth for me to go out to order it or if I rather stay home next time to cook the cuisine instead. Highlights: 1. service 2. Modern interior design Review of what I ordered: 1. Wonton Noodle Soup (Mì Hoành Thánh): flavorful broth with balanced seasoning (not too sweet nor too salty), kudos to the thin wonton wrappers and wontons are evenly cooked, but the meat filling tastes like ground pork and loaded with a lot of cornstarch. I do not detect any shrimp here. Bummer. The pickup kids prefer my homemade pork and shrimp wonton noodle soup better. 2. Bún Thái - Husband loves it. I like it too. I will probably order this next time for me. I highly recommend this for my Vietnamese and Thai folks. Now if you don't like sour tamarind spicy broth type of soups, then this won't be a good suggestion for you. 3. 813 Signature Caramelized Duck: chewy meat texture, 5 pieces of chewy duck pieces with half a dozen of petite Shanghai bok choy for $25 bucks - I will pass on this next time and experience cooking a whole duck and harvest my bok choy at home next time. I ordered this for the kids and they didn't like the chewy meat texture and complained it's too boney. The sauce reminds me of a garlic sweet soy sauce version I have tasted elsewhere, good, but just not worth the money. 4. Caramelized Fish Clay Pot (Cá Kho Tộ: I cook this traditional Vietnamese dish often at home. I ordered here because they have the fried pork fats sprinkled on top in a picture on a Google maps. In reality, my version has raw onions on top and that raw onion smell turned me off. The fried pork fat bits are not crunchy like the versions in Texas either. But compared to other cá kho versions in Florida I have tried at other restaurants, this is the best version because they cook it that same day. Some restaurants cook this dish and freeze the caramelized fish, thaw, and reheat when customers order it. To me, any cooked fish once frozen just doesn't taste "good", the fish texture would be dry. My mom and some other people prefer cá kho a few days after being refrigerated and reheated again so more flavor is absorbed into the fish. For me, the texture of fish becomes dryer and the flesh becomes more saltier. Not my preference at all for cá kho. This restaurant make it fresh with that tender melt in your mouth texture. So I recommend trying cá kho here if I never tried this traditional Vietnamese home-style kind of food. Overall, I guess if you don't know how to cook Vietnamese food, it's worth a visit here. If I come back, I would order the Bún Thái. I wish they have a picture menu to showcase their actual cooked dishes for easy reference.

Ambience, Service 4.5/5 Veg Summer roll 3.5/5 Veg pho 3/5 This was fresh, but pho was sweet to my palette.
They closed for a couple of months and we noticed they finally opened back up "under new management". I order our usual online and when I picked up I asked if the recipes were the same and of course they said yes, well, they aren't. This used to be our favorite pho spot. The broth wasn't the same. The meat in the beef pho wasn't the same. I ordered and picked up within the 15 minutes and it was pretty cold. When we used to pick it up it was so hot it would stay fresh until I got back to work (less than 10 mins away). Unfortunately we won't be back. It used to be so good, now it's mediocre if that.
Takes double money automatically get more money in the card.tip in card,, but I get cash are ready So rude When you coming Be careful when you go there, about twice your money

# Pho 813: Un Viaje Culinario al Corazón de Vietnam en Orlando
En el vibrante tapiz gastronómico de Orlando, donde la diversidad culinaria florece con cada nueva apertura, hay ciertos establecimientos que se erigen como verdaderos embajadores de su cultura de origen. Pho 813, ubicado estratégicamente en el corazón de la Ciudad Bella, es uno de esos lugares. Más que un simple restaurante, es un portal sensorial que transporta a sus visitantes directamente a las bulliciosas calles de Hanói o las serenas orillas del río Mekong, todo ello a través del humeante y aromático tazón de pho, el plato nacional de Vietnam.
Orlando, conocida mundialmente por sus parques temáticos y su incesante energía turística, es también un crisol de culturas y una ciudad que ha abrazado con entusiasmo la riqueza de las cocinas del mundo. La presencia de Pho 813 en esta metrópolis no es solo una adición a su ya diversa oferta culinaria, sino un testimonio de la creciente apreciación por la autenticidad y la profundidad de los sabores vietnamitas. Este artículo se adentrará en la esencia de Pho 813, explorando no solo el restaurante en sí, sino también el profundo legado histórico y cultural del pho, un plato que ha conquistado paladares alrededor del globo.
El pho es mucho más que una sopa de fideos; es una institución, un símbolo de identidad nacional y una obra maestra culinaria que encapsula la historia, la resiliencia y la creatividad del pueblo vietnamita. Para comprender la magia de Pho 813, es fundamental sumergirse en los orígenes y la evolución de este icónico plato.
La historia del pho es tan rica y compleja como su caldo. Se cree que el plato surgió a principios del siglo XX en el norte de Vietnam, específicamente en la provincia de Nam Dinh y luego popularizándose en Hanói. Su nacimiento es un fascinante crisol de influencias culturales. Por un lado, se percibe la huella de la colonización francesa en Vietnam, que introdujo el consumo de carne de res, un ingrediente que no era tan común en la dieta vietnamita antes de su llegada. Los carniceros franceses, al desechar los huesos y trozos menos nobles de la res, ofrecieron una oportunidad para que los cocineros locales crearan un caldo sustancioso.
Por otro lado, la técnica de los fideos de arroz tiene profundas raíces en la cocina china, que ha influido en Vietnam durante siglos. La palabra "pho" en sí misma es objeto de debate etimológico, con algunas teorías sugiriendo una derivación del francés "pot-au-feu" (un estofado de carne), mientras que otras apuntan a una raíz china que hace referencia a los fideos de arroz. Independientemente de su origen exacto, lo cierto es que el pho se consolidó como un plato distintivo y profundamente vietnamita.
Inicialmente, el pho era una comida de la clase trabajadora, vendida por vendedores ambulantes que llevaban sus cocinas portátiles en postes de bambú a través de las calles. Era un desayuno sustancioso y económico, capaz de energizar a los trabajadores para un largo día. Con el tiempo, su popularidad creció, trascendiendo las barreras sociales y convirtiéndose en un alimento esencial para todos los estratitos de la sociedad.
La división de Vietnam en 1954 marcó un hito importante en la evolución del pho. Cuando millones de vietnamitas del norte emigraron al sur, llevaron consigo sus recetas y tradiciones culinarias. En el sur, el pho se adaptó a los gustos y la disponibilidad de ingredientes locales. El "pho Bac" (del norte) se caracteriza por su simplicidad y la pureza de su caldo, con menos condimentos y un enfoque en la carne de res magra. El "pho Nam" (del sur), por otro lado, es conocido por ser más dulce, con un caldo más rico y una mayor variedad de guarniciones y hierbas frescas, reflejando la abundancia agrícola del sur. Hoy en día, la mayoría de los restaurantes de pho fuera de Vietnam ofrecen una versión más cercana al estilo sureño, con su generosa oferta de acompañamientos.
El alma del pho reside en su caldo, un elixir dorado y aromático que es el resultado de horas de cocción meticulosa y una cuidadosa selección de ingredientes. No es una preparación que pueda apresurarse; la paciencia es, de hecho, uno de sus ingredientes más vitales.
El proceso comienza con una base de huesos de res (fémur, espinilla, costillas), que se blanquean y se lavan para eliminar impurezas antes de ser cocidos a fuego lento durante al menos seis a diez horas, y a menudo incluso más. Esta cocción prolongada extrae el colágeno, los minerales y los sabores profundos de los huesos, creando una base rica y gelatinosa.
A esta base se le añaden una serie de especias aromáticas, cada una desempeñando un papel crucial en la sinfonía de sabores del caldo. Las estrellas son el anís estrellado, la canela, el clavo de olor, el cardamomo negro y las semillas de cilantro, que se tuestan ligeramente antes de ser añadidas al caldo para liberar sus aceites esenciales. El jengibre y la cebolla, a menudo asados hasta que sus pieles se carbonizan ligeramente, aportan una dulzura y un toque picante ahumado que redondea el perfil del sabor. La salsa de pescado y una pizca de azúcar o roca de azúcar (rock sugar) se utilizan para equilibrar y realzar el sabor umami.
El resultado es un caldo de una claridad sorprendente, a pesar de su profundidad de sabor, con una complejidad que se despliega en cada cucharada. Es un caldo reconfortante, nutritivo y profundamente satisfactorio, la verdadera esencia de la cocina vietnamita.
Con esta comprensión del legado del pho, podemos apreciar mejor lo que Pho 813 aporta a la escena culinaria de Orlando. Ubicado en la ciudad, en las coordenadas 28.4930794, -81.4286097, Pho 813 se posiciona como un bastión de la autenticidad vietnamita en una ciudad conocida por su diversidad.
Orlando es una metrópolis en constante crecimiento, atrayendo a personas de todo el mundo. Esta afluencia de culturas ha enriquecido enormemente la oferta gastronómica de la ciudad, transformándola de un mero destino turístico a un verdadero centro culinario. La presencia de una vibrante comunidad vietnamita en Florida Central ha sido fundamental para traer consigo sus tradiciones culinarias, y restaurantes como Pho 813 son el resultado directo de esta riqueza cultural.
La ubicación de Pho 813 en Orlando lo hace accesible tanto para los residentes locales como para los numerosos visitantes que buscan explorar más allá de los circuitos turísticos habituales. Es un lugar donde se puede escapar del bullicio y sumergirse en una experiencia culinaria genuina.
Al cruzar las puertas de Pho 813, los sentidos son inmediatamente recibidos por el inconfundible aroma del caldo de pho, una mezcla embriagadora de especias, carne y hierbas frescas. El ambiente, aunque moderno y limpio, suele mantener un toque de la calidez y la sencillez de los restaurantes vietnamitas tradicionales, enfocándose en la comida y la experiencia del comensal.
La estrella del menú, por supuesto, es el pho. Un tazón de pho en Pho 813 es una obra de arte culinaria. Los fideos de arroz, delicados y sedosos, son la base sobre la que se construyen los demás componentes. La carne de res se presenta en una variedad de cortes y preparaciones: desde finas láminas de filete de res crudo que se cocinan al instante con el calor del caldo hirviendo, hasta trozos tiernos de pecho cocido a fuego lento, tendones gelatinosos y suaves albóndigas de res. Cada opción ofrece una textura y un sabor únicos que contribuyen a la complejidad del plato.
El caldo, la joya de la corona, llega humeante, su superficie brillante con pequeños glóbulos de grasa que prometen una profundidad de sabor inigualable. Pero el pho no estaría completo sin su generosa guarnición de hierbas frescas y vegetales crujientes. Un plato rebosante de brotes de soja crujientes, hojas aromáticas de albahaca tailandesa, rodajas picantes de chiles jalapeños y gajos de lima ácida acompaña cada tazón. Estas guarniciones no son meros adornos; son componentes esenciales que permiten al comensal personalizar su pho a su gusto, añadiendo frescura, picor y acidez para equilibrar la riqueza del caldo. Las salsas de Sriracha y Hoisin también están siempre presentes en la mesa, invitando a una mayor experimentación de sabores.
Si bien el pho es el protagonista indiscutible, un restaurante vietnamita auténtico como Pho 813 suele ofrecer una amplia gama de otros platos que son igualmente deliciosos y representativos de la rica gastronomía del país. Estos platos complementan perfectamente la experiencia del pho y permiten a los comensales explorar aún más los sabores de Vietnam.
Entre las opciones más populares se encuentran los Gỏi Cuốn o rollitos de primavera frescos, que son rollitos translúcidos rellenos de camarones, carne de cerdo, fideos de arroz y hierbas, servidos con una salsa de cacahuete cremosa o una salsa de pescado agridulce. Son un contraste refrescante y ligero con la calidez del pho.
Los Bún Thịt Nướng o "vermicelli bowls" son otra delicia, consistiendo en fideos de arroz fríos con carne de cerdo a la parrilla, rollitos de primavera fritos (chả giò), vegetales frescos y maní triturado, todo aderezado con una salsa de pescado. Para aquellos que buscan algo más sustancioso, el Bánh Mì, un sándwich vietnamita que fusiona la baguette francesa con rellenos vietnamitas (carnes asadas, paté, vegetales encurtidos, cilantro y chiles), es una opción fantástica y muy popular.
Y, por supuesto, ninguna experiencia vietnamita estaría completa sin probar el café vietnamita. Ya sea caliente o helado (Cà Phê Sữa Đá), con su intenso sabor a café robusta y la dulzura de la leche condensada, es una bebida que deleita y energiza, siendo el contrapunto perfecto para una comida aromática. La frescura de todos los ingredientes es una constante en la cocina vietnamita, y Pho 813 se esfuerza por mantener este estándar, garantizando que cada plato sea vibrante y lleno de sabor.
El pho trasciende su papel como simple alimento para convertirse en un pilar de la cultura vietnamita, tanto en su tierra natal como en la diáspora.
En Vietnam, el pho es un alimento omnipresente y adaptable. Es el desayuno favorito de muchos, un almuerzo rápido y satisfactorio, o una cena reconfortante después de un largo día. Se come en puestos callejeros, en mercados bulliciosos y en restaurantes familiares. Es la comida que se ofrece a los amigos, la que se comparte en familia y la que se busca para curar el alma o el cuerpo. Su calidez y sus propiedades nutritivas lo convierten en un remedio popular para los resfriados o simplemente para un día lluvioso. Es un símbolo de hospitalidad y un recordatorio constante de la riqueza de la tradición culinaria vietnamita.
La historia del pho fuera de Vietnam es inseparable de la historia de la diáspora vietnamita. Después de la Guerra de Vietnam y la caída de Saigón en 1975, millones de vietnamitas buscaron refugio en otros países, llevando consigo no solo sus recuerdos y sus esperanzas, sino también sus recetas y su cultura. En lugares como Estados Unidos, Canadá, Francia y Australia, los refugiados vietnamitas abrieron restaurantes, a menudo como una forma de sustento y de mantener viva su identidad cultural.
El pho se convirtió en el plato estrella de estos establecimientos, introduciendo a un público global a los sabores de Vietnam. A medida que el plato ganaba popularidad, se adaptó ligeramente a los gustos locales, pero siempre manteniendo su esencia. El pho se ha convertido en un embajador cultural, abriendo las puertas a la comprensión de una nación a través de su gastronomía. Es un ejemplo poderoso de cómo la comida puede ser un puente entre culturas, un consuelo para los desarraigados y una delicia para todos.
