Superior Pho

We visited Superior Pho in Cleveland 2 weeks ago, for brunch on the way to the CIFF (Cleveland International Film Festival).  If you've never attended CIFF, you need to go and experience the energy, and watch some amazing films.  I could spend hours talking about this amazing event.  Anyway, this blog is about food! Bryan visited this place with his friend a few years back.  Our friend who is Vietnamese, says this is the best pho in Cleveland.  Pho (pronounced "fuh") is a Vietnamese soup with noodles.
 

Above is the Goi Cuon, which are rice paper summer rolls with shrimp, fresh herbs, vermicelli noodles, served with an awesome peanut sauce. They were large, and you only need one, or you will not have enough room for your pho!
 
The pho is served with a side platter of fresh basil, mung sprouts, lemon and jalapeno peppers. Perfect for adding some additional tastes, crunch, or spice to your pho.
 
I ordered a Tai Chin Pho which included brisket and eye round steak.  A small portion was plenty for me.  I enjoyed the freshness of the ingredients and loved adding additional items from the side plate to my liking.  If you don't know how to eat pho, just look around at others and observe.
 
This place had a lot of energy and was very busy.  The line went out the door, however, it moved quickly.  The service was great, and the food was excellent - another place I can't wait to go back.
