Photos: How To Eat Soup

The tofu pho soup served at the Hong Kong Restaurant at Roanoke City Market Building is so big and so hot hat I have do divide the serving, putting about half into a clear plastic "go" container in order to help the halves cool off.

Sophisticated Asian food connisuers eat this stuff with chopsticks. I'm not sophisticated, so I use a spoon and a fork. Together. I once watched the co-owner eat her soup with chopsticks, then, when the solids were gone, she turned up the liquid and finished it off. Like I'm doing here. Thought that was cool.
