A white ceramic bowl containing a Vietnamese-style noodle soup is centered on a light grey, speckled tiled surface with visible grout lines. The soup consists of a clear, light brown broth with broad, flat white rice noodles, several pieces of pork (some with bone fragments, likely ribs), dark reddish-brown pieces consistent with congealed blood, and green chopped herbs, resembling spring onions or cilantro. Golden-brown fried shallots are scattered throughout the broth, and multiple distinct orange-red dollops, indicative of chili sauce, are visible on the meat. A silver-colored metal spoon, adorned with an embossed decorative pattern on its handle, rests partially submerged in the soup on the right side of the bowl. The scene depicts a prepared meal in an indoor setting in the city of Thủ Đức, Vietnam.
