Pho is listed as what course in its Wikipedia infobox? The answer is main course.

Pho is a Vietnamese noodle soup generally served as a substantial meal. Its core components are rice noodles, a carefully prepared broth, herbs, and meat—most commonly beef or chicken. Because it is filling and served as the central dish of a meal, the Wikipedia infobox classifies its course as “Main course,” rather than side dish, appetizer, or dessert.

The dish is relatively modern in Vietnamese culinary history. Written references to pho appeared in the early 20th century in northern Vietnam, and the food later spread throughout the country. Northern and southern styles differ in broth, noodles, herbs, and accompaniments: Hanoi-style pho is often lighter and more restrained, while southern versions commonly include bean sprouts, Thai basil, and sweeter broth.

Pho is sometimes mistaken for any Vietnamese noodle soup, but the name traditionally refers to the characteristic flat rice noodles and aromatic broth. Beef pho is called phở bò, while chicken pho is phở gà. Refugees after the Vietnam War helped popularize the dish internationally, where it is now served in restaurants around the world.
