Start with your favorite pho…add some slices of jalapeno pepper…

…a sprinkling of fresh bean sprouts…a few leaves of basil…a splash of lime…

…have sauces at the ready to dollop or dip…the sweet of hoisin…

…the fire of chili…

…in an atmosphere of calm…enjoy.

We had lunch today with our friend, K, at Pho Hot, which is, at the moment, our favorite pho place. Basil, lime, bean sprouts and hot peppers are popular condiments for the yummy Vietnamese beef and noodle soup. And I couldn’t resist the colors here.
