Note to other YELPERS: if a place is empty at 7:30pm, walk, NO , RUN THE F--- away!!! I made that mistake tonight when I dropped by this place.
Don't be deceived by the parking, those are all patrons of CONGEE QUEEN.
I ordered a bulgogi banh mi - it was EXTREMELY salty. It's beef cooked in salt topped with salty sauce and topped with salty kimchi. This sandwich must have exceeded the % Daily value of sodium recommended in a 2000 calorie diet.
Next was the duck bao. It was COLD, tasteless and oily as hell. Someone must have decided that since my banh mi was too salty, that they should leave this one bland. Think I'm exaggerating on the oiliness? See the pic I uploaded. Pics don't lie!
Now for the finale - the pork belly bao. The bao was bland and pork extremely dry. The pork belly is one of the juiciest cuts of pork -- and these people still messed it up.
I won't be surprised if this place closed soon -- and once they do people will say .. IT'S A BAO TIME ... Bwahahaha
