Pho 88 Lowell/Chelmsford

Wanted some Pho and realized that I haven't been to Pho 88 in Lowell/Chelmsford for ages. They are next door to Priya, the Indian restaurant downstairs. I have been going here since they opened and it was just one room, thankfully they quickly expanded next door so they have plenty of space. Having said that, they were completely filled up today but Fridays is fairly busy everywhere. They now also serve hotpot and the special tacked to the walls were 1/2 dozen fresh oysters for $10.



This is the large Beef Pho (#14 Xe Lua) that comes with everything. No reason to get anything smaller since now you can eat yourself silly and still have a meal left. You can see the rare flank (commonly spelled frank in most restaurants) between the wisps of steam. Well done brisket is in there as well as tendon and tripe. The broth had a lot of star anise taste almost too much for me but overall this was an excellent Pho and no holding back for the white guy! They also (still) have the best looking waitresses around..
