| - Let me first start off by saying that I loveee Bahn Mi's... especially the one next to tea planet (corner store) and the small shack in front of tea planet... those are delish...
Having said that, I was really excited to try this place out, after reading the reviews on Yelp, I was a but skeptical so I gave this place a try. I stopped by this morning at 9:30am, place was very clean so I give that an A. I ordered the following and my opinion.... OH YEA all these orders weren't for me, I bought a variety of stuff for me and my friends and all took bites ;)
#6- bbq pork... horrible, it was thin slivers of the red chinese bbq COLD
#11- special combo... the meats had so many artifical red coloring
#82- ham, bacon, egg, cheese... nothing special, tasted like the fast food breakfast sandwiches
#14- pork roll w/pate.... wheres the pate?? oh wait its smeared onto only half the roll!!!!
Deli Majo- look like little tiny madelines filled with sweet custard
Hollow donut- covered with sesame seeds and fried
Sesame Ball- tiny sesame balls filled with red bean paste, fried
Overall, I thought the baguettes would be light & crispy, but it was rock hard and too cold. There also was not enough of the dikon/carrot stuff... and too much cilantro!!! The pastries were ok....
This place looked like a really cool place, but you can tell its definitely a huge company that runs this establishment.... Next time you want a real Bahn Mi, try the small mom and pop stores... although you may have trouble with communication, you wont be disappointed with the food!!!
