I will start. Pho Dong in Redwood City (on the same street as Kemuri and I Dumpling).
Had
B15. Steak, Flank, Tendon, Trip and Fatty Flank Pho
B16. Brisket, Flank, Tendon, Tripe and Fatty Flank Pho
Surprisingly nice for the stretch of peninsula not exactly known for Vietnamese food. Noodle had springy texture, and was quite al dente for pho. No MSG in the broth that I can tell from the lack of massive water consumption afterwards. Good mix of fatty and tendon-y stuff. Its not going to win Best of the Bay awards but its closer to home than San Jose.
One complaint: the jalapeno was seriously weak. Threw the whole plate in there and its still barely hot.
Add $1.5 for extra noodle on the side. They divided their pho menu into 2 sections- first time enjoying pho (all the lean cuts), and those who want to enjoy traditional pho (the fatty and the innards)
