What to Eat at Baoguette and Pho Sure (Bull’s Penis, for Starters)

We have to admit, when we received the menus for Thao Nguyen and Michael Bao’s Baoguette 3 and its attached restaurant, Pho Sure (opening Monday on Christopher Street), we weren’t in much of a rush to examine them. Bánh mì, pho, yeah yeah yeah — we’ve seen it all before. But when Metromix pointed out that a soup containing bull’s penis is on the menu, we had to take a closer look. A challenger to Kenka in the glans game? We’re also excited to see blood pudding offered — New York’s Vietnamese eateries have always been more squeamish about featuring this on the menu than, say, L.A.’s. See the rest of the offerings below.
