FTP ’Following the Pho’ Noodle Edition

We took a quick trip out to the cradle of our slippery silky slender and deliciously textured pho noodles which bless the bowls at Noodle Shop 1 and 2

Steam rising from the rice sheet expressway. The first glimpse of soft plumes sliding into the large extraction passageway hanging above. Sounds of turning gears and chatter amongst the staff echo through the factory.

The large steamed sheets rise from depths like fine shutters bouncing reflections onto the stainless steel surrounds of the equipment lined space.

The noodles dance as broth hits the bowl forming a sheen and warm protective layer. Preserving the perfect heat and texture forming ultimate healing properties 🪩
