The pho at Pho Binh is in the North Vietnamese style,
pho bac, common in Hanoi. The menu at the Finn Hall location is short and sweet offering beef noodle soup (
pho bo) with options of brisket (lean or fatty), rare steak, tender flank, beef tendon or beef meatballs. Chicken noodle soup (
pho ga) is available as well as plain noodle soup. Bone marrow is offered as a side to add to the pho along with extra meat, noodles and egg. For starters there are eggrolls and chicken cabbage salad with ginger fish sauce dressing.
