At 157 Mott Street, between Broome and Grand Streets in Chinatown, Pho Bang does not at first blow one's mind with its banal facade. Inside it looks normal as hell. But check it out: the prices, as Crazy Eddie Antar used to say, are innsannne. We ate the hot pho soup, a soothing Vietnames beef broth packed with rices noodles, bean sprouts, basil leaves, brisket and thin slices of steak for an absurd $4.99. Yes, it more than filled our capacious tummy.
