They are known to make fresh baked baguettes and croissants, they offer breakfast sandwich that is serve all day, and they have beverage like Italian Soda, Vietnamese Coffee, Iced Mocha, Thai Iced Tea, and they make refreshing Smoothies. In addition, they have a small section where you can purchase Asian snacks and additional drinks like Arizona Tea, Coconut Water, Coca Cola, and Energy Drinks. They maintain the place so clean and they do provide friendly service. You can dine in comfortably and watch TV while enjoying your meal.
I ordered a Grilled Chicken Sandwich ($4.75) Euro Style ($1.80) with Lettuce, Tomato, American Cheese, Mayo, and it comes with a side of red onion, two pickle spear, pepperoncini, and mustard. The Euro Style sandwich is serve on a 10-inch baguette, which I think is a huge serving at an affordable price, but I could only finish half of it. The chicken, however, taste like it wasn't cook long enough. I felt like the meat has no flavor and there are just a few pieces of chicken. The texture of the baguette taste dry and the bread crumbles leaving a mess. There is little mayo in the sandwich, it would have been better if there is more dressing because the bread is thick. And I would have enjoy the sandwich if there is more meat and if the chicken is properly grilled and serve hot.
On a brighter note, I did try the Chicken Pate Chaud ($2.25) which is a Vietnamese golden puff pastry filled with ground chicken. The pastry is so soft and buttery and the meat filling is very tasty. If I knew the pastry is good, I would have ordered two instead of one. Also I had a Papaya and Mango smoothie ($5.29) and the drink taste so good! I can taste the Mango fruit and its natural sweetness. I wouldn't mind coming back for more of the delicious pastry and to try a different flavor drink. And considering how reasonable the price is for a sandwich, a person can definitely get full ordering a 10-inch baguette. On my next visit I would probably go for a small order, maybe a banh mi or a croissant. Hopefully the next sandwich will taste much better.
