This week, Londoners can cure their party-season hangovers courtesy the free Pho-Fix pop-up taking place in Soho this December 12 and 13.
During the week when office Christmas parties — and subsequent “hangxiety” — are at their highest, Pho-Fix by Vietnamese restaurant group Pho are offering a range of cures to keep Londoners going.
The free-to-attend pop-up is set to offer complimentary hangover cures including IV drips.
Rumoured to be the best way to solve a hangover quickly, the hydrating vitamin-rich IV drip is one of the treatments on offer during the pop-up, but for anyone avoiding a needle, freshly squeezed fruit-and-veg juices, complimentary skincare products and steaming bowls of Vietnamese Pho are available too.
More than 700 bowls of Pho and over 700 juices are set for each day of the giveaway which is operating on a first come, first served basis.
Pho, the popular noodle soup, has long been hailed for its fortifying properties, filled as it is with natural antioxidants, plentiful herbs and spices, vitamin-rich veg and hearty bone broth.
Skincare brand Patcholoy will be partnering to provide much-needed eye gels and hydration masks, ideal for anyone who happens to be suffering from some hangover-induced puffiness or skin fatigue.
Pho’s complimentary juices are set to include the mint, lime and carrot combination and a classic apple and ginger: ingredients all known for their restorative, immune-boosting and inflammation-reducing powers.
The classic IV drip comes courtesy of Effect Doctors. Dr. William Buxton, CEO of Effect Doctors commented: “Our carefully curated IV drips allow you to rehydrate, refresh and rejuvenate. It’s perfect for alleviating the effects of a night of heavy drinking and replenishes the essential salts in your body, offering you a way to perk up without reaching for another cup of coffee.”
Libby Andrews, Marketing Director of Pho comments: “For twenty years our customers and staff have raved about our soups as their go-to hangover cure. During the Christmas party season, there is no better way to replenish and refuel when you’re feeling a bit worse for wear.”
