Vietnam has a unique Phở-specific doneness scale layered over the steakhouse scale. 'Tái' means both 'rare' (steakhouse) AND 'raw-cooked-by-broth' (Phở). 'Chín' means 'fully cooked' in Phở context. The overlap creates some natural ambiguity that's culturally navigated by context. Home cooking defaults to Chín kỹ (well done).

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
