    I am from Vietnam, but I am used to the American way of eating pho. Is it considered rude to twirl rice noodles on your chopsticks?

    No, it is not considered rude.

  • Question
    Is it okay to only drink the broth in pho?
    Community Answer
    It's expected that you eat the contents of the soup and don't just drink the broth. If you are at a restaurant and only want broth, you'll probably save money by asking for the broth by itself, rather than pho.

  • Question
    Is it rude to eat the contents of pho and leave most of the broth? There is so much broth.
    Community Answer
    It is polite to drink the broth. However, if you are at a fast-food restaurant, it does not really matter (similar to how sushi etiquette doesn't apply to a cheap fast-food restaurant).

    Is it okay to drink the last of the broth from the bowl by lifting it to my mouth with both hands?
    Community Answer
    Yes, that's fine. Just don't spill it. You could also use a spoon.
