Never tasted soup quite so wonderful. Holy, how could you eat there so much:D;)? I wonder if anyone else ate there that much. Looks like I should have tried that soup.

496and706 Posted December 5, 2012 #6 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I would have been in there for lunch every single day of our last cruise if we had Pho on the Noordam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localady Posted December 5, 2012 #7 Share Posted December 5, 2012 We visited the Tamarind 10+ times during our last cruise, and it was in a large part due to how wonderful the chicken Pho soup was!! :D I did ask for, and received a recipe for it. Unfortunately, I can't find it among the papers that I brought home, and I hope it didn't get left behind. I promise to look again, and will post the recipe if I can find it. I know the recipe called for galangal and fresh kaffir lime leaves, two things I will need to shop for specially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TiogaCruiser Posted December 5, 2012 #10 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I never heard of this soup before CC's. Is it pronounced Poo,Pew,Few, Foo or some other way?:o "F" as in Frank. "E" as in example- sort of. The e gets hit kind of hard and then cut off- at least that's how it sounds to me. My friends are still helping me on that one and I suspect its a permanent work in progress. Local lady: if you find a Vietnamese market, check out the cinnamon.

pinnaclegirl Posted December 5, 2012 Author #11 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Thanks for tracking down the recipe. Makes my mouth water just reading it. Now, to track down what's required and give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BellBoys Posted December 5, 2012 #12 Share Posted December 5, 2012 The pho I have had at Vietnamese restaurants is usually a clear broth or reddish in color with star anise. I loved the pho in the Tamarind but thought it tasted more like the Thai soup: Tom Kha Kai. I like Tom Kha Kai equally and it might be easier to find a Thai restaurant than a Vietnamese in some areas. I also ate the Vietnamese Lamb w/Mint and it was outstanding! Highly recommend this dish.

Rare cruisemom42 Posted December 5, 2012 #14 Share Posted December 5, 2012 My son (whose best friend is Viet) says it is pronounced "fuh" with the same sound as in "ugly". The recipe posted does sound more like Tom Kha Gai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I should have tried that soup. Saw a woman on the trip who said she was from Calgary, cruises on H.A. alot. Saw her in the Tamarind every meal we ate there, could this have been a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floridiana Posted December 5, 2012 #18 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I also ate the Vietnamese Lamb w/Mint and it was outstanding! Highly recommend this dish. You are 100% sure this is a good dish? I ate this on a Princess Ship and it was so disgusting that I sent it back. I never send back food... until the first time on that ship. The waiter said nobody liked it.

My favorite is the chicken penang curry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a Tamarind Cookbook! :D Happy to help! :D I need to do a bit of research to get a couple of the fresh ingredients, but typing it up got me motivated to do it. A couple of days on the TA crossing, I had a bit of sea sickness and all I wanted was the Pho soup, it truly made me feel so much better! P.S. Pardon the typos in the recipe (they should be 'steamer'), I saw them after the edit feature had expired. :rolleyes: Edited December 5, 2012 by localady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Ellen1 Posted December 5, 2012 #22 Share Posted December 5, 2012 My son (whose best friend is Viet) says it is pronounced "fuh" with the same sound as in "ugly". The recipe posted does sound more like Tom Kha Gai. That's my understanding of how it's pronounced, too. There's a restaurant near me with great pho soup that's called "What The Pho?" :eek: LOOOOOVE that name! Soup's pretty good, too. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLcruiser67 Posted January 25, 2014 #25 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Greetings: I followed the recipe posted here yesterday, as my Mom and I have been dreaming about that soup from the Tamarind Restaurant since we got off the Nieuw Amsterdam! It tasted almost exactly like it, but I remember bean sprouts... On their menu they mention mint and bean sprouts, but it's not on the posted recipe. Was this recipe from a culinary demonstration? The only item I never found was the galangal, even at an Asian market. Just a word of warning: use gloves when you cut the red chilis and serrano peppers. I burned the tips of all fingers last night, and made the mistake of putting in contact lenses this morning--major burn!! Kelli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
