Pho (Eden Center style) · Washington DC

Vietnamese beef noodle soup, simmered overnight from oxtail and shin and finished with rice noodles, herbs and lime, the staple of the metro-DC Vietnamese diaspora.

The Washington metro area has the third-largest Vietnamese-American population in the United States, concentrated at Eden Center in Falls Church and along Wilson Boulevard in Arlington. The community settled there from the 1975 fall of Saigon onward; Eden Center, opened 1984, became the cultural anchor. Pho, the long-simmered beef noodle soup, is the staple dish: oxtail, shin and beef bones simmered overnight with charred ginger, onion, star anise, cassia and clove, then strained over rice noodles and finished with rare beef slices, herbs, bean sprouts and lime. Within the city limits, Pho 14, Pho Viet on 14th Street and Pho 75 in Rosslyn run the canonical bowls.
