    * This review is for the Pho Bo noodles * I understand that you take a chance when you stray from the local cuisine and try something more exotic. I've had some great experiences and some not so great, and the experience tonight definitely was the latter. I really can't speak for any other food served at the restaurant, but their interpretation of Pho Bo is absolutely horrible. My wife and I were in the mood for some nice comforting broth and noodles, and we were spectacularly disappointed. I have had much better instant noodles than what was served. I honestly don't think the chef here understands the concept of what a Pho Bo is supposed to be. Barcelona has excellent meats, vegetables, and spices widely available, so it really puzzles me how terrible this version of Pho Bo is. The broth lacks any deep flavors, it tastes like the some beef was boiled for very short time, then seasoned with some soy sauce and copious amounts of salt. Slices of beef served in the Pho Bo was so salty that it was inedible. I had to hurry back to the hotel to brush my tongue to get the horrible metallic salty taste out of my mouth. Living in Europe, it's difficult to find good Asian food in general, but this was absolutely the worst experience I've had in a very long time. I didn't think it was possible, but you can have a bad meal in Barcelona.
