And to guide you to your target, you can find Pho 4A along Jalan Pisang in then Kampong Glam/Bugis districts of Singapore, where the proprietors have assembled classics of Vietnamese cuisine after an exhaustive search for the best recipes from the Land of the Blue Dragon. If you want the best, pho-get the rest!

Pho-thermore, Pho 4A offers a welcome break from the relentless Middle Eastern cuisine that is typical along Singapore’s Arab Street and in the Bugis/Kampong Glam districts in general. Tucked down Jalan Pisang, just off Arab Street, Pho 4A’s light, healthy Vietnamese dishes leaven the preponderance of unleavened bread and mezzes that, while delicious, can get a little tedious after a time. Nothing beats a quality bowl of Vietnamese pho ga or pho bo, with chicken or beef, noodles, scallions and sprouts steeped in a delicate lemongrass-and-citrus- infused broth gently herbed and spiced with ginger, coriander, and a little fresh chilli. Pho sure you can find an exemplary bowl of this delicacy at Pho 4A.
