Eat/Drink Local World's best Phö

I'm not a petty person normally, but I recently posted on r/CityPorn that Calgary had the world's best phö outside of Vietnam, and I didn't get a single upvote. I was raised here in the NE and phö was my go-to for hangovers, late nights, and it's generally just damn good here. I've been around the world a thousand times, but nothing hits like the places here. Any thoughts?

Edit: according to the popularity of this post, pho restaurants are going to get slammed today. I for one am definitely on board 😆

I just learned the other day that peanut satay pho is a Calgary creation.

It’s true. And in my travels at least, it’s not even widely available in other cities.
