How many calories do you think the average XL size of pho has? I've asked a few restaraunts but they have no clue. I love pho and eat it alot so I was just curious. I know it can vary alot so I'm just looking for a ball park.
I was thinking 800?

Probably somewhere around that figure. What you really should be watching out for is the sodium content. I like drinking the soup so it's probably through the roof cuz I'll be super thirsty after.
Its probably best that you not be too worried about sodium intake when you eat it.
Yeah, most pho restaurants add a ton of MSG/salt to make their soup base have some sorta taste since they don't use as much beef bones/oxtail as homemade would.

this is for a small bowl, pho Tai, 550calories. obviously more if you have fatty meat, bo vien, tripe, etc.
54g of protein!?!?
^^ Yea that seems a bit off. Also the sodium is through the roof as mentioned above!

Everyone makes it differently. You'll never know.
you don't see too many chubby nammers out there
That's cause bun, pho, etc isn't an everyday staple thing, just as almost all over s.e Asia, a typical family dinner is literally hot steaming rice, a veggie dish, a meat dish and maybe a light and usually clear broth/soup of some sort and dipping sauces or chili in a saucer.Originally posted by r3ccOs

I LOVE pho but I don't drink the broth at all - hopefully that avoids most of the sodium!
I actually recently discovered that those "regular rice dishes" are actually pretty tasty. Little sriracha, little hoisin, om nom nom!
As to the broth, I usually slurp up what comes with the noodles and what comes with bottom-trawling for those last few bits of tripe, tendon, meat, veggies, noodles, etc, otherwise I leave it. I USED to drink it all (I'm a stickler for finishing EVERYTHING on my plate) until I learned it was mostly just liquid salt XD
it cant be all that bad for you. i use to eat it 3-4 times a week... since i stopped i put on a good 15-20lbs
I can't see it being too bad really. it's boiled/steamed rice noodles and broth with beef. i'm sure there's way worse things to eat. Noodles will probably be the most calorie/carb dense thing in the dish, simple carbs and stuff but i'd guess it's lower in fat (depending on the accompaniments: tripe/brisket/beef).
Worddddd. When I lived at my parents, my mom's would make pho maybe every 1-2 months. So gooooooot mang. She'd make the broth from scratch and cook it Friday evening, and let it simmer till Saturday morning. So flavorful with the oxtail bones and then the oxtail meat is so soft from simmering so long. Now I miss mom's cooking. Banh Xeo mmmmmmOriginally posted by n1zm0
