I don’t want to be rude and I hate basically flaming someone’s hard work, but… I just couldn’t finish this. I ordered a nem nuong banh mi—this is my classic order and I get this whenever I find a place that serves it.
However, and I don’t know how to put this delicately: it tasted like SPAM. Like SPAM from a can. As if this wasn’t shocking enough, the vegetables on it… tasted like Sam’s Club coleslaw????!!??!!? HUH!??! WHAT?!?! Omg…. I was shocked to say the least. The combination was… not great. I couldn’t finish my sandwich and I tried to give the meat bits to my dog but she did not want it (highly unusual–she will eat practically anything).
I don’t really know why it tasted like this. I did have my husband try it before telling him my thoughts in order to get an unbiased second opinion, but he had the same reaction I did.
I just don’t know, man. I am baffled. The nem nuong banh mi’s I usually have come with grilled slices of marinated pork, pickled long sliced carrots + daikon, cilantro, cucumber, peppers, and I pay a little extra for avocado on it too if they have it.
The one I got from here came with shredded carrots + cabbage, cilantro leaves, peppers (which strangely were not spicy at all), and that weird… mystery meat. Which, I have to state, was ungrilled. So just raw slices of this interesting meat.
I don’t know. They did put a *lot* of meat, so they are very generous for the price if you are looking for quantity.
Anyway, that’s my two cents. Maybe it’s a different regional recipe that I’m not used to—you may love it! The only way to know is to try it for yourself. Um but as for me it’ll be a no, sorry 🙁
BAKERY REVIEW:
So delicious! Yum! Everything from the bakery was great! 100/10! My husband and kids all agree.
CUSTOMER SERVICE REVIEW:
The lady behind the counter seemed rushed to get us out of her way. The customer behind us appeared to be a friend of hers or something and she wanted us to move so she could talk to them. Which, meh, fine. I get it. Been there. But also… bleh. Not great customer service.
OVERALL:
Make your own judgements. You’ll never know unless you try it. We probably won’t come back again even for the delicious bakery just because there are a million other options in this city but it’s nice that we tried it at least once. Again I am really sorry I didn’t like it and please give them a chance anyway because you might like it
The char siu steamed bun is just as good as everyone says—juicy BBQ pork wrapped in a fluffy, lightly sweet bun. Total must-try. I also grabbed some donuts to go, and the black sesame one was deliciously chewy, nutty, and perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth.
Tiny, cozy Vietnamese shop vibes—nothing fancy, but always packed thanks to the great prices and tasty bites. Definitely worth a stop! ⭐️
Baked to perfection and and always fresh.
I have had a beef sandwich one as well.
But if I’m in the area- I swing by and get those wonderful cookies- the ladies is very helpful and they offer a variety of foods.
