| - I used to come here before I discovered where to get the perfect banh mi to my liking. I knew it was ahhhite, but would come anyway because my mouth would long for that banh mi experience. In HI, I used to go to Bale...it was worth scraping the roof of my mouth for.
Okay, back to Lee's. It's fun because they are 24hours, the offer an array of banh mi's, and serve other items I haven't bothered to memorize. They do sell other items in their refrigerated area if you are one of those out-of-towner who is looking to take something back.
Honestly, my experiences with their banh mi sandwiches were....my sandwich was skim, and my bread would be in pergatory somewhere. Pergatory, meaning...wasn't quite toasted and wasn't quite cold. Then other times...I wasn't sure if it was stale or overly toasted. But how could that be possible considering I've gone on nights where they are in baking their french rolls. Perhaps I should've requested a fresh roll, but I don't like to make a big ole deal especially if we're talking about a 3 dollar something sandwich.
Anyway, I wouldn't stray someone from coming here. I'd point them in a different direction first, though. But if you wanna come in and try it out...go ahead. They aren't that bad at all especially if it's 3 in the am and you find yourself desperate for a banh mi.
