This place offered serious tasty food, especially Pho. I had seen people posting comments on how bland their broth was.. Well if they really understood the the difference between taste of authentic Vietnamese beef broth, and&#8230; MSG, as well as using the perfect amount of fresh herbs and chilli sauce.  Indeed, portion wise they were no longer as generous as before International Food Fair on Hornby got a total makeover, but the quality was still there.  And also a bowl of noodle soup for $8, tax included, this was still a killer deal in downtown Vancouver.  So forget about Vina, which in my opinion has brought disgrace to Pho, and give it a go at Pho Express!<\/p>\n<p>All their other lunch items were good: lemon grass chicken, ginger chicken, beef chicken, curry chicken, and spiced pork. Very decent fried spring rolls, and the subs were popular choice among a lot of downtown workers. They sure knew what they were doing to bring flavours to their juicy tender meats.<\/p>\n<p>I wouldn&#8217;t say they have the best Vietnamese food here; but for the value, it would be the best pho that you would have ever had at a food court.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140616-133839-49119436.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140616-133839-49119436.jpg\" alt=\"Pho Express at International Food Fair\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pho Express at International Food Fair<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Location and other reviews:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/14\/1526448\/restaurant\/Downtown\/Pho-Express-Vancouver\"><img alt=\"Pho Express on Urbanspoon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/1526448\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since our work office moved, I had not been going to Pho Express as often.
