O wrigglesome delight!

I did it. :) It's not the same as the restaurant Pho Bo, of course, but it's recognizably the same dish. With less cilantro, to drop the risk of going, "Whoa! Mouthful of cilantro! Ptuh, ptuh, ptuh." And a few substitutions that depended on availability and such. (Like the ngo gai, which a websearch said could be replaced with mint or basil, was replaced with half mint, half basil.)

I did it. My hands are covered in the guts of limes, and I did it, I did it!

Yay. :)

There are also good pho restaurants in Malden center, which is a little closer for you than Harvard Square, and cheaper than Pho Pasteur. Saigon Noodles and Pho 99 are both good.

Something else that the restaurants make that I'd like to learn how to do is avacado shakes.
