City forces Pho place to remove sign


Liquor and Poker

We had Pho Kingdom in Fort Myers. 

The name was appropriate, because a Vietnamese couple bought out the #4 ranked BBQ joint in the country and spent 18 months gradually Vietnamizing it. 

When the Reuben’s Smokehouse sign came down, and Pho Kingdom went up, I laughed my ass off. 

Lasted 3 months.

Fucking dumb, indeed...

It was TripAdvisor in 2015. To be fair, their BBQ was pretty damn good, but yeah...pretty random, huh?

The success that resulted from that ranking is what drove the original family to sell because it became more than they could (or wanted) to handle. 

One damn good barely known BBQ joint, shot to hell. Pho Kingdom.....
