6 good places for Vietnamese Pho in KL & Selangor

Slurp on the popular Vietnamese noodle soup at these destinations, which strive to bring the flavours of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to the Klang Valley.

1. Pho King at SS2 Petaling Jaya

1. Pho King

This version is pho real: Our favourite Vietnamese home cook in PJ recently opened a stall that runs five days a week in a kopitiam. Work for her signature pho starts a day in advance, using beef bones and oxtail to build a recipe that shines with rice noodles in a light, sweet broth, completed with tender Australian beef and lots of aromatic herbs.

2. An Viet at The Gardens Mall

1. Pho Bo at An Viet 1

At An Viet, you can order an amount of noodles based on weight – 80gm, 120gm, 160gm or 200gm – all for the same total price of RM18.90 per bowl. We found even the lighter servings sufficient for a single patron, so there’s no need to choose the maximum weight unless you’re extremely hungry.

This Pho Bo is the less elaborate northern version, with a clear broth to showcase clean, natural beef flavours, extracted from 12 hours of simmering marrow bones, bolstered with Australian tenderloin and brisket meat, fresh basil, bean sprouts, lime juice and Sriracha hot sauce.
