Green onion pancake is crispy and layers, very flavorful. The pan fried pork buns are very juicy and tasteful. The pork Xiao long bao is not only very juicy but also very big. From the taste and the texture, we can tell all of them are not pre-made, not frozen food. Definitely come back again for the other food. Last but not least, don’t forget to try the chili sauce.
My favourite pho around, Pholicious offers a beautifully clear and delicious broth filled with generous portions of meats, vegetables, and noodles. I almost always order the special, which comes with multiple meat types for their multiple textures and enough soup and contents to take home for another filling meal- and at regular size too, not to mention their mindblowi large offering. Their other soups are also great, and Vietnamese coffee rather decent as well, a staple of every visit regardless of the hour. The banh mi options are nothing mind-blowing but sized and taste well enough to be a delightful snack. Finally- the greatest shocker- this pho establishment has some of, if not THE best garlic wings I have ever had. Give it a try- you will not regret it.
The soup dumplings are so good!! The environment of the restaurant is also very clean. Will def come again
If you enjoy delicious food with generous portions at a reasonable price, I highly recommend this place. I ordered the filet mignon fried rice, and the portion was huge—less than $20! The owner also provided excellent service.
It's a clean family oriented place with a good pho soup (has plenty of Vietmanese spice so I could feel that aroma on my fingers all day long). The server was very enthusiastic, he was almost like a standup comedian trying to joke and make people smile. He mentioned to an old lady that she was gorgeous and she responded that he was the best. And then he modestly mentioned: "I know". I appreciate his efforts to refresh the crowd lol
Highly recommend this neighborhood gem! We enjoyed brisket pho, garlic noodles with chicken and spring rolls. Sooooo gooood!! It's our 2nd time here and our new favorite place. Their short rib pho is also scrumptious. Look forward to returning again and again!
Amazing food, desert and the House Special Hot Coffee is excellent! They said it was stay up all night coffee. It is very strong, creamy and a nutty flavor. Best coffee ever! Very friendly staff!
Best pho and fried rice in town. So yummy, so tasty, and the flavor is rich. The vibe is chill. The environment is clean and well decorated with all the amazing art canvas. We ordered rare steak and meatball pho, chicken fried rice and butter garlic chicken wings as appetizer. All of them are wonderful and the portion is large. And don’t forget to order the Iced Thai tea.:) definitely come back soon to try other dishes.
The food here was really good. We went for lunch and ordered Vegan pho and edamame. The pho was really delicious and so were the edamame beans. The staff is super friendly and helpful and the service is quick. Will definitely go again. I highly recommend this place.
Really liked the food and ambience. Felt welcomed and peaceful. Bought beef lomein, garlic noodles with tofu, green tea, inhouse lemonade, and egg rolls. Loved the inhouse lemonade which soothed my hunger, and egg rolls as a starter went really well into my taste buds. The lomein was really good, except for the high MSG content everything was perfect.
Went there yesterday for the first time. Ordered Oxtail Pho and filet mignon fried rice. Both were very delicious. The Pho was amazing, it was not as salty as other Pho restaurants and the filet mignon fried rice was one of the best I had. The service was great and the prices were reasonable. I will definitely go back.
First time to visit the place and food, service and vibes were on point. The place is bright and welcoming! We were served by Joe who was so friendly and helpful. Despite the high amounts of customers and pick ups flowing in, he made sure every customer was really take care of. We really appreciated his work ethic and attention to detail. I had the Pho Special and it was incredible! Thanks, we'll be coming back!
The food here is very good. I ordered a regular size shrimp pho, spring rolls, shrimp fried rice, and some egg rolls and OMG the food was amazing. Very tasty. The portions are great and they even offer a large size pho for those of you that can handle a large size bowl. I mean, the regular size that I ordered was large enough but the large size is big. Perhaps next time I’ll order a large size because it was just that good.
So I happen to see pictures of food from this place, so I am like I am going to try it. So I did, people there was very friendly, they even ask how was my food. They were very helpful, my son was with me and we both love their food. Will pretty much come back anytime soon.
Thanks to Google for helping me find this restaurant. I was feeling cold and wanted to have soupie and craving Vietnamese food but too lazy to drive to the Irvine area. Here is this restaurant, delicious soup! The brpth was so on point. there was no need to add any more sauce it was perfect. The eggrolls definitely taste really good, unlike some restaurants just filled with vegetables. Anyway, #61 and #11 will be my fave! Highly recommended and will be one of the regular! Oh, Connor, he was so kind and friendly.
WOW!!! This place is Awesome!! The two dishes we ordered were really delicious and service was also excellent and super friendly. This restaurant is also very clean and food also comes out fairly quick as well. Our new favorite Pho restaurant in South OC!
Takeout order: my order was placed in person and was ready pretty quickly. I really enjoyed everything I got. My wife is 7 months pregnant and she enjoyed her food as well. That being said I would love to try the food in the restaurant and I am sure I would give it 5 stars

Delicious food- I really enjoy their broth.
Great service, excellent food, and nice spot for Pho!
Friendly service and good food. Pho was really good.
Solid savory Pho with quality beef. Great location in a Pho dead zone!
Shaken beef dish with rice is delicious. I'll bring my guys here to eat more often.
The pho is amazing. Layers of flavor. We'll be back!
Excellent service, fresh food and very clean everything.
Great food and service! Strongly recommend
First time visiting, and I can already tell you this is a place where I'd take my relatives to
The food is fantastic and prices are reasonable!
One of those places with amazing owners.
Yumy pho
Very good Vietnamese homemade food!!
Excellent Phở Restaurant in Lake Forest, California.

The best pho ever!

Good mom and pop restaurant
Love this place! My favorites are the veggie pho with veggie broth and shaken beef 😊 they add French fries to their beef which I love! Also, they have such great customer service! Thank you for always being so hospitable!
Love this place! The food is amazing. Best of all. Tracy, Joe, and Alex make it a fun place to just hangout and joke around while you enjoy your delicious food.
This is our go to for pho, pad se ew (sp?), and garlic noodles. I like the steak so much and the veggies are super fresh.
Out of all the pho places I have tried around here, this one is the best! The broth is so flavorable and fresh tasting, the meats are tender a delicious. Staff are amazing and incredibly kind! Only place I will go back to for my pho fix!
All the food here is delicious! You can't go wrong with any dish. Great service!
Came here last minute for a quick dinner. Got seated quickly. Had fries, pad see ew, and the pholicious special. All were great. Definitely coming back.
Friendly staff, fast service. The garlic noodles were awesome, full of flavors!! I will definitely go back soon! I highly recommend this place.
The best pho I’ve ever had. Please take down the Eiffel Tower painting it makes me so dizzy it’s so ugly. Sorry it is but the people put a ton of love into their food !
Amazing food, my family and I stumbled across this restaurant because we were in the area but the food truly is delicious. I highly recommend the shaken beef!
I like this place! The service was friendly and quick. I had the filet mignon and brisket Pho. Butterfly shrimp hot and krispy !🍖🥩🍜🍤
Great menu, great food, great service, great atmosphere. Did I say great? I meant ... Great.
Consistently delicious, well-executed Vietnamese cuisine. My favorites so far are the spring rolls, fried egg rolls, garlic noodles, and butterfly shrimp.
Great service and great quality of food! Very family friendly restaurant.
The hot pho warms my soul. It has been tough couples of days. The portion is large and price is well worth it.
Food was very fresh and fast. Available to accommodate and combine / subtract and menu items. A lot of tasty food and good value.
I like garlic shrimp noodle and fish sauce chicken wings.
Bean sprouts were fresh!!!! I really appreciated their attention to detail. Place was clean. Staffs were friendly. Thank you!!!!
Very delicious food and quick service. The pho is packed in convenient containers for carryout.
The brisket pho was full of flavor and the egg rolls were also quite tasty.
The pho was really good. The broth was flavorful and I liked that it came with chili crisp. I will be back.
Wonderful pho, bun with pork and shrimp, and spring rolls . Staff delightful and so helpful.
Amazing food alot of savory and had great taste in flavor This is a must PS. sorry in the bathroom
Excellent food! Very friendly owners. You will enjoy your meal!
My son recomended it, so the 4 of us went, we enjoyed their food, the staff was really nice, will be back 😋
Love their food it's so delicious & the staff is always very nice.
Fantastic food. Joe and Tracy are both amazing and greeted is with love and made us feel very welcome. Thank you for accommodating us!
Pho Tung is a little gem of a spot in Lake Forest! Their pho broth is amazing, they have caramelized garlic chicken wings, fresh squeezed lemonade, and everything you could want when you have a craving for Vietnamese food. All their food tastes great and you can tell that they put in a lot of care when making it. I'd recommend this spot to anyone looking for some Viet food in LF!
Outstanding food and service. I had the pork and pickle spicy soup. Exciting to come back and try the duck soup. Thank you!
Great prices and great tasting food. I recommend the pho and the chicken wings. Broth was rich and herby. Chicken wings were seasoned with nuoc mam, garlic, onions, and bell peppers. The dog loved the leftover oxtail bones! Takeout is packed carefully and securely. The best packaging I’ve seen from a togo pho restaurant. I cant wait to dine in once COVID is over.
Stellar food, friendly service (they even threw in a few jokes), customizable menu options for vegetarians, ridiculously good fresh lemonade, and affordable prices. It’s a casual dining place with comforting fresh Vietnamese food and I’ll definitely come back next we’re in the area.
Wonderful experience! We ate the crepe, chicken wings, pho broth and green beans. The broth is out of this world, very rich beef flavor, chicken wings were crispy and crepe had a lovely coconut flavor. My kids devoured everything and service was very attentive. We will be back!
I love this place so much!!!! But I am shocked that they are closed now! Does anyone know why they are closed? Do they move to a new location?
We're so excited to have found pho and banh mi in Lake Forest that rivals our favorites in Westminster!! We tried the Pholicious Special pho, the Rare filet and brisket pho, the shrimp and pork vermicelli, the Garlic Noodles with chicken, the pork belly banh mi with patè, the egg rolls, and the lettuce wraps. All the food was served piping hot, and was SO delicious. Plus, the service was outstanding! We'll be back soon.
Ate here last week. Service was good, pho was solid, and would eat there again. I liked that my order was taken right away and portion was decent. Pho was delicious.
Randomly discovered this place 3 weeks ago and it has become our most favorite Vietnamese restaurant in southern Orange County. We used to go faraway to Little Saigon in Westminster to get good Vietnamese foods. For those who are big fans of Vietnamese Foods, try their Egg Noodle Special and Pholicious Special, you will understand what I mean. The rest of menu looks really inviting, will keep trying one by one. Also, people and the owner here are very nice, the place is very clean and decorations have some French touch. They are applying for alcohol license, it would be a plus for dinner. A++++
Very clean, friendly staff and the food was delicious. We had Oxtail pho that was a 5/5, vegetarian pho and vermicelli with tofu and vegetarian egg rolls. The tofu was fried with a delicious sauce but the egg rolls weren't my favorite. That being said, I'm definitely going back.
The best Vietnamese food in town. Best quality, fresh, and natural. I ordered the shaking beef and it was flavored so well with crispy fries. My girlfriend ordered the bun cha and was also made perfectly. Highly recommended
Excellent. This is the best Vietnamese food I’ve had in LA besides Little Sister
Price point is perfect. Great appetizers (wings and shrimp), my boy enjoyed the shaken beef and fries, and the several pho bowls we had were good. Nice fresh basil and the staff was friendly and helpful. Wife loves the coffee. Have been searching for a new go-to pho joint and I think I've found it.
Aaaaamazing pho.. great place. Staff is friendly. We had the Pho Tung, Veggies Pho, and garlic and shrimp noodles and those were amazing. My kids don't like change but they loved Pho Tung. Ready to go back soon. Also The prices are fair. Definitely a perfect place.
This place is awesome!! Friendly staff and amazing food! There is a huge variety of foods, a different dish for every mood. Cooks are also very accommodating. You can choose from healthy dishes to delicious comfort foods. I would eat here everyday if I could!
Very authentic tasting Pho and super friendly staff! It's a great choice right in the middle of Lake Forest. We make our way here when we don't feel like putting up with the line and crowd at Sup.
The pho noodle soups and tofu vermicelli with egg rolls tastes delicious! The pho noodles are chewy and the soups are very flavorful. The pho meats are very tender. The price is reasonable for the generous portions. And customer service is wonderful as well!
the amount of warmth and family oriented ambiance from ALL staff was beyond unexpected! My mother's birthday was made more special by their deeeeelicious tira misu and cheesecake!! ox-tail and brisket pho and the GARLIC NOODLES!!! a must visit place for the whole family! Thank you Pho Tung for the hospitality and amazing food!
Delicious food, quick service, and cozy atmosphere
Outstanding food and service. I had the pork and pickle spicy soup. Exciting to come back and try the duck soup. Thank you!
I had the pho with rare beef slices and lean brisket. The noodles were a bit chewy for my liking and the meat was ok. My favorite part about the pho was the broth. I also had the garlic noodles with meat. The noodles tasted delicious but the meat had a weird after taste. Overall, the place was good. Def would recommend the garlic noodles.

We had the best pho soup and will go this restaurant again!👍
Good flavor. Good prices. Great service. Better than most around here.
Good food. Had the vermicelli and pho
A great pho place. Simple, clean good broth that’s what pho is all about. I come back again.
After a weekend of partying, nothing beats a steaming bowl of pho to help with recovery, and Pholicious in Lake Forest delivered just what we needed. The broth was rich, flavorful, and easily the best pho we’ve had in the area. Even my Latino boyfriend, who’s usually picky about pho, devoured a large bowl without hesitation! We also tried the garlic butter chicken wings. While they had a nice flavor, they were a bit dry inside, and the exterior lacked the crunch we were hoping for. That said, the pho is so on point that we’ll definitely be back. Pholicious lives up to its name!
This review is only for the chicken cutlet rice bowl. I was eager to try this new location and placed a to-go order. The server was friendly and even gave me a 10% discount, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the chicken itself was disappointing—it wasn’t crispy, felt too soft, and didn’t taste good. Service was nice, but the food quality needs improvement.

Food was good but not a favorite for me
Good pho. Quick service. The brisket was fattier than other places I've been to. They dont have the good hot sauce..the red one with the chili seeds. That was a disappointment. I cant say that I would recommend this place to anyone else. My friend was more excited about the bakery next door.
Just ok….
I came here to introduce my friend who has never had pho to its glory and honestly was sadly disappointed. We looked for a place open a bit later and close to where we were- when we showed up the place was completely empty on a Saturday evening which should have been our first warning. We tried to order butterfly shrimp but they were out and insisted…like REALLY insisted on the wrapped shrimp. I was disappointed to find they pretty much only had pho with steak and meatball. I prefer the combos with tendons and tripe and everything in between. We got both about the same time and the shrimp felt like they were fried for way too long in the rubbery sense. The beef in the pho was thick and chewy and when our server set down the condiments she had a panic moment, almost taking then back, and said ‘oh nevermind I just thought there was bugs on there’ and then left. Not exactly what you want to hear before eating. Overall can’t say I’d ever go back nor can I recommend this spot.
I came here when it was Pho Tùng afew yrs ago, and thought it was good enough to be close by rather have to go to Westminster. Well, came back the second time and realized the name changed. We dined in any way, the Pho was not as good as with Tùng. So we came back with family members in town and wanted to give another chance. This time was the worst. Didn't smell pho flavor at all when we walked in, and even worse not smelling it even the bowl was in front each of us and an inch away. Taste was so average if not terrible. My "special bowl" came out with not what described, just typical meatballs and cooked meat, the rare steak slices were disappeared somewhere and never being found. By the way, chicken pho was terrible. Will never come back.
Worst lo mein ever. For $19, it was six shrimp and a tiny amount of almost completely raw bell pepper and onion on a small portion of bland oily noodles. I added salt just so I could eat them. Honestly, after the first bite, I considered dumping the entire thing and spending more money to order something else for dinner. The (admittedly massive) tofu spring rolls had a weird smell and very little flavor except too much mint. I ended up tearing them open and dipping the tofu in peanut sauce and leaving the rest. I do not understand why people like this place. I will never try it again.

Not vietnamese food
I ordered a dish and they gave it to me with too much garlic. It tasted gross 🤮 and at the beginning they didn’t have us the menu and had to wait
Ordered online hoping to be ready by the time I arrive, ordered ahead of time got here never had my order. Took along time to even get help until they understood me till then I had to wait 30 minutes ontop and I have a meeting to be definitely not good for the inconvenience I
I hate to leave negative reviews, but my family and I ate here a little while ago and got horrible food poisoning. Unfortunately, we won’t be back.

# Pholicious Noodle Bar: Un Viaje Culinario al Corazón de Lake Forest
En el vibrante panorama gastronómico del sur de California, donde la diversidad y la calidad convergen para ofrecer experiencias inolvidables, Lake Forest se ha consolidado como un destino apetecible para los paladares más exigentes. Entre sus numerosas propuestas culinarias, Pholicious Noodle Bar emerge como un faro de autenticidad y sabor, invitando a residentes y visitantes a embarcarse en un viaje sensorial a través de la rica tradición de la cocina vietnamita, anclado en la estratégica El Toro Road.
Este establecimiento, más que un simple restaurante, representa un punto de encuentro donde la frescura de los ingredientes, la meticulosidad en la preparación y el ambiente acogedor se fusionan para crear una experiencia gastronómica integral. Pholicious Noodle Bar no solo satisface el apetito, sino que también nutre el alma, ofreciendo platos que son a la vez reconfortantes y exóticos, familiares y sorprendentes.
Para comprender plenamente el atractivo de Pholicious Noodle Bar, es esencial sumergirse en el contexto de Lake Forest. Ubicada en el corazón del Condado de Orange, esta ciudad es conocida por su calidad de vida, sus amplias zonas verdes y su comunidad activa y diversa. Lake Forest se incorporó como ciudad en 1991, pero su historia como asentamiento se remonta a mucho antes, evolucionando de una región agrícola a una próspera comunidad suburbana. El nombre "Lake Forest" es un tributo a los dos lagos artificiales de la zona y a los extensos eucaliptos que adornan su paisaje, creando un entorno idílico que contrasta con el bullicio de las grandes metrópolis.
La demografía de Lake Forest es variada, atrayendo a familias jóvenes, profesionales y jubilados por igual, quienes valoran la seguridad, las excelentes escuelas y las numerosas oportunidades recreativas. Esta diversidad se refleja en su escena culinaria, que ha crecido para satisfacer una amplia gama de gustos y preferencias. Los residentes de Lake Forest son conocidos por su aprecio por la buena comida y su apertura a explorar cocinas internacionales, lo que crea un terreno fértil para establecimientos como Pholicious Noodle Bar, que ofrecen sabores auténticos y experiencias únicas.
La ciudad se beneficia de su ubicación estratégica, con fácil acceso a las principales autopistas del sur de California, lo que la convierte en un punto conveniente tanto para los lugareños como para aquellos que viajan desde ciudades cercanas como Irvine, Mission Viejo o Laguna Hills. Esta accesibilidad, combinada con su creciente reputación como centro gastronómico, asegura un flujo constante de comensales en busca de nuevas y emocionantes opciones.
La ubicación de Pholicious Noodle Bar en El Toro Road es un factor clave en su accesibilidad y visibilidad. El Toro Road es una de las arterias principales de Lake Forest, extendiéndose a lo largo de la ciudad y conectando diversas zonas residenciales y comerciales. Esta vía es un bullicioso corredor donde se encuentran centros comerciales, oficinas, tiendas especializadas y, por supuesto, una gran cantidad de restaurantes.
La elección de El Toro Road para Pholicious Noodle Bar no es casualidad. Su constante flujo de tráfico y la presencia de negocios complementarios garantizan una exposición significativa. Además, la infraestructura de la zona, que incluye amplias zonas de aparcamiento y fácil acceso a las principales intersecciones, contribuye a la comodidad de los clientes. Para muchos residentes de Lake Forest, El Toro Road es la ruta diaria para sus desplazamientos, lo que facilita la decisión de detenerse para una comida rápida pero deliciosa o una cena relajada. La presencia de otros establecimientos culinarios en la zona también crea un microclima gastronómico que anima a los comensales a explorar y comparar, beneficiando a aquellos que, como Pholicious, ofrecen una propuesta diferenciada y de calidad.
Pholicious Noodle Bar se especializa en la cocina vietnamita, una gastronomía reconocida mundialmente por su equilibrio de sabores, su frescura y sus ingredientes saludables. En el corazón de esta oferta culinaria se encuentra, como su nombre indica, el "pho", la sopa de fideos vietnamita por excelencia. Sin embargo, un "noodle bar" moderno como Pholicious va más allá del pho, abarcando una variedad de platos de fideos y otras especialidades que capturan la esencia de Vietnam.
La experiencia en Pholicious Noodle Bar se centra en la calidad y la autenticidad. Los caldos, que son la base de muchas de sus sopas, suelen cocinarse a fuego lento durante horas, utilizando huesos de res o pollo, especias aromáticas como anís estrellado, canela, clavo y cardamomo, y una combinación secreta de hierbas y condimentos que le otorgan su profundidad y complejidad características. Este proceso laborioso es lo que distingue un buen pho y es un testimonio del compromiso con la tradición culinaria.
Más allá del pho, un establecimiento de este tipo podría ofrecer una gama de otros platos de fideos, como:
Además de las sopas, un noodle bar suele complementar su menú con otros clásicos vietnamitas. Los rollitos primavera frescos (Goi Cuon), rellenos de camarones, cerdo, fideos de arroz y vegetales, envueltos en papel de arroz y servidos con una salsa de cacahuete o nuoc cham (salsa de pescado), son un aperitivo ligero y saludable. Los rollitos primavera fritos (Cha Gio), crujientes y sabrosos, también son una opción popular.
Las ensaladas de fideos (Bun Thit Nuong), que consisten en fideos de arroz fríos con carne a la parrilla (cerdo, pollo o res), verduras frescas, hierbas, cacahuetes y una generosa porción de nuoc cham, ofrecen una alternativa refrescante y completa. Estos platos no solo son deliciosos, sino que también reflejan la filosofía vietnamita de equilibrar sabores dulces, ácidos, salados y picantes, junto con diferentes texturas.
El ambiente en Pholicious Noodle Bar probablemente busca ser una mezcla de modernidad y tradición, creando un espacio acogedor y funcional. Un diseño contemporáneo, con toques que evocan la cultura vietnamita, como obras de arte minimalistas o elementos de madera natural, podría definir su estética. La iluminación adecuada y la disposición de las mesas están pensadas para ofrecer comodidad, ya sea para una comida rápida durante la hora del almuerzo o para una cena más prolongada con amigos y familiares.
El servicio al cliente es, sin duda, una prioridad. Un personal atento y conocedor que pueda guiar a los comensales a través del menú y ofrecer recomendaciones es fundamental para una experiencia positiva. La capacidad de personalizar los platos, como ajustar el nivel de picante o añadir ingredientes adicionales, es un valor añadido que muchos aprecian en la cocina asiática.
La autenticidad es un pilar central en la propuesta de Pholicious. Esto se traduce no solo en el sabor de los platos, sino también en el uso de ingredientes frescos y de alta calidad. Desde las verduras crujientes y las hierbas aromáticas hasta las carnes tiernas y los fideos perfectamente cocidos, cada componente juega un papel crucial en la creación de una experiencia culinaria memorable. La frescura de los ingredientes es particularmente importante en la cocina vietnamita, donde las hierbas frescas como la menta, la albahaca tailandesa, el cilantro y el brote de frijol son elementos esenciales que se añaden justo antes de comer para realzar los sabores y texturas.
El pho, la estrella indiscutible de Pholicious Noodle Bar, es más que una simple sopa; es un ícono cultural de Vietnam. Su origen se remonta a principios del siglo XX en el norte de Vietnam, y se cree que evolucionó de la influencia francesa (el caldo de res) y china (los fideos de arroz). A lo largo de los años, el pho se ha transformado, adaptándose a los gustos regionales y a la disponibilidad de ingredientes. El pho del norte (pho bac) es típicamente más simple, con un caldo claro y menos guarniciones, mientras que el pho del sur (pho nam) es más complejo, con un caldo más dulce y una abundancia de hierbas frescas y salsas para acompañar.
El pho se consume a cualquier hora del día en Vietnam, desde el desayuno hasta la cena. Es un plato que reconforta en los días fríos y refresca en los cálidos. Su popularidad ha trascendido las fronteras de Vietnam, convirtiéndose en uno de los platos asiáticos más reconocidos a nivel mundial. En lugares como Lake Forest, el pho ofrece una ventana a esta rica cultura, permitiendo a los comensales experimentar una parte esencial de la identidad vietnamita.
La preparación del pho es un arte que requiere paciencia y habilidad. El caldo, la base de todo, es el alma del plato. La carne, ya sea ternera o pollo, se corta finamente y se cocina justo en el momento de servir, lo que garantiza su ternura y sabor. Los fideos de arroz, suaves y elásticos, son el lienzo sobre el que se construyen los demás sabores. Y las guarniciones, desde brotes de soja y hojas de albahaca hasta rodajas de chile y gajos de lima, permiten a cada comensal personalizar su sopa a su gusto, creando una experiencia interactiva y personal.
