Tonkinese = Pho, Mytho = ???
Otherwhere
Random information for Vietmanese food seekers in Montreal:
- For some reason, “Pho” is called “Tonkinese Soup” here.
- There is another soupish dish that called “Mytho” which is ubiquitous and very good. Maybe named after the place Mỹ Tho? Anyway, it was pretty much like this, minus the quail eggs. I had it with the broth on the side and was recommended (twice!) to put some sweet vinegar on top which turned out to be a very good idea.
- Our favorite Vietmanese restaurant here is Cafe Saigon in “Le Village”. Like the review says, “so out it’s in”.
