A guy , who happens to be black is visiting.

He is not exactly picky but sticks to what he knows and has zero desire to deviate from it. Im thinking of taking him to go try pho . He'll go if I take him but if he doesn't like something, he's the kind that will make you feel uncomfortable continuing eating there.

To avoid an unpleasant scenario. Im asian and I want to introduce him to asian food. but I want to take it slow and not turn him off on his first experience.

If you're black, have you tried pho ? did you like it ? hate it? what did you think of the dish?

If you're not black , Have you tried pho ? what did you think of It ? if you didn't like it , why?

Black or not black, isn't there an easier dish you can ease him into instead of throwing him into the deep end of the pool?

Where I’m from , the west coast , pho is really common , it’s not the few end at all and it seems like people are familiar with it .

Sushi I think would be a deep it because of the new texture , despite its popularity

How ever he’s from the south and I don’t think people there are familiar with pho much

also generalizations aka singling out an entire ethnic group = racist

Phở is so good, you'd wanna have a hangover just to kill it with it. Have a cold? Phở is the cure.

I do prefer bún bò Huế though and ever since I found out that I wasn't allergic to hard-shelled crustaceans any more, bún riêu has been my new shit.
