  Pho is a Vietnamese soup, and this place offers several different types of Pho.  As the name implies it’s Asian cuisine with numerous twists.  So straight to the food. Crispy Brussels Sprouts with MoPHo Mayo – Delicious.  Like a sriracha mayo for dipping. Shrimp and pork spring rolls – Just OK.  Peanut dipping sauce… Continue reading MoPHo, New Orleans, LA Report #18
