>How, the novice may ask, does one discover which version is the correct one for oneself? >There is nothing else to it – you must eat a few hundred bowls of phở and find out. If this requires moving to Hanoi, so be it. Not the worst life plan, to be honest! A little bit sad that my own "death bed pho" - chicken pho from that one stall near the market in old quarter - gets just a passing mention as the only acceptable…
For us Americans who can’t make it out to Vietnam, I’ve found the best Pho in the US is in Orange County, CA and Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood!
I've been told my old stomping ground (Houston) is extremely competitive. I've not eaten Vietnamese outside of Texas, so I can't really compare. It was shocking to me, when I moved to Portland, OR, to not have easy access to pho, banh mi, and vermicelli dishes. They kinda make up for it with poke bowls?
Houston has excellent Vietnamese cuisine. I guess it's Southern Vietnamese style? (can't help but notice the ARVN veterans memorial on Bellaire Blvd.).
In the East, Falls Church in VA has excellent food. But I think the best would have to be Louisiana. No name places with a shrimp boat out back, on the coast, east of New Orleans. I'm told a lot of Vietnamese refugees were resettled there and went into the fishing industry, southern Louisiana and the Mississippi river delta being somewhat similar to Vietnam.

Any know how to make the pho tai broth?
* Beef bones (neck or shin, the type of bones you get depend on how intense it will be)
* 1 chicken carcass
* Parboil for 10 minutes, throw away broth, rinse bones
* Parboil chicken carcass for 2 minutes
* Char onion and ginger
* Toast coriander, star anise, cardamom
* Add chicken carcass, bones in an instant pot, covered with water, and some salt and onion and ginger
* High pressure for 15 minutes (depends on quantity)
* Natural release
* Add spices, high pressure for 3 minutes (and if you are added brisket - nam, parboil that first and add it here)
* Season with salt to taste, mushroom seasoning (bot nem), or msg.
* Refrigerate overnight
For tai, you want to cut a some raw meat and just make sure your stock is very hot so it cooks

so pho tai refers to just the raw cut out of beef, you make a traditional beef broth. Here is a short cut way with an instant pot. * Beef bones (neck or shin, the type of bones you get depend on how intense it will be) * 1 chicken carcass * Parboil for 10 minutes, throw away broth, rinse bones * Parboil chicken carcass for 2 minutes * Char onion and ginger * Toast coriander, star anise, cardamom * Add chicken carcass…
