Pho

Ramen

Pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup dish and ramen is a Japanese noodle soup dish. These dishes are different in many ways.
Pho was created in northern Vietnam when the Chinese immigrants brought in rice noodles and the French colonists brought beef.
Ramen was invented after Chinese immigrants brought lamian (Chinese wheat noodles) to Japan. Over the years it changed to be the iconic Japanese food it is today.
Both pho and ramen have experienced a boom in the West and are growing in popularity.
The main differences between pho and ramen are in the ingredients. Pho comes with either chicken or beef broth and your choice of beef cut. Ramen comes with three regional broths and many different options for toppings.
Pho is made with rice noodles and ramen is made with wheat noodles.
Pho is a very light and fresh dish whereas ramen is more filling and hearty.
Both pho and ramen can be easily found in their respective countries, as they are popular amongst locals, and both are relatively cheap.
When ordering pho, you can choose which cuts of meat you want, as well as which herbs and spices to add.
When ordering ramen, you can choose from a variety of different broths; then you can choose the firmness of the noodle, the thickness of the broth, and the amount of oil.

In my experience in the West, phos are better on average than ramen. But a very good ramen shits over the best pho. But both are goat soups imo.

I love dunking banh mi into the leftover broth.

Team Ramen here. The pho soup base is too thin and watery for me.

I’d take pork belly over beef brisket any day of the week, which is why ramen is the GOAT of soup based noodles.

Ramen. Easier to get good Ramen than good pho.

Nuthin but a bunch of slacked jawed phoggets around here!

This stuff (ramen) will make you a god damn sexual tyrannosaurus, just like me.

Pho, rare steak, brisket and meatballs.

 

[dildos]

i like both tbh.

 

[BoogerDawson]

I like egg and wheat noodles more than rice noodles. When I order pho, I'll get egg noodles instead of the rice noodles in the beef broth.

If I had to pick, it would be ramen, but I love both.
