Nguyen Trong Thin, the restaurant owner in Vietnam, and his wife had been to Melbourne earlier to prepare for the shop opening. The restaurant’s Facebook page updated many pics of the chef cooking Pho for diners in Australia.

In the two days of soft opening, long lines of people coming to the shop to enjoy Pho cooked by chef Nguyen Trong Thin in person.

Mr. Thin said, he chose Melbourne the second destination abroad of Pho Thin because it is like Tokyo, a fastidious market. He wants to challenge himself in this market.

According to the chef, the noodle soup has retained its authentic flavor and presentation. The thin beef slices are flash-fried before topping the noodles together with sliced spring onion and boiling beef broth.

In the future, he hopes to bring Pho Thin to Europe, especially France.
