Vietnamese egg noodle soup


It's true that in our former lives before the advent of the world wide web and food blogging, we were caterers for small events so preparing a complex meal for a dozen of our office mates is no sweat. It's just a matter of organization. Well there is some labor, mostly in lugging 13 containers of tupperware full of the myriad ingredients required for any Vietnamese noodle soup, but other than that no problem. After that it's a straightforward matter of compiling each bowl: egg noodles, roast pork, shrimp, bean sprouts, scallions, cilantro and a sprinkling of crispy shallots. There's no particular name for this soup that I know of, it's sort of a hybrid hu tieu and any standard mi noodle soup.
