Yes, if you are an aficionado of great Banh Mi, then you must make the pilgrimage to Banh Mi Phuong. Around 11 AM we jumped in behind a few folks and were shocked to see how many people started to get in line behind us. Being vegetarians we ordered the Op La, which is fried egg and it comes topped with all the usual suspects, picked veggies, lettuce, herbs and sauces. Many travel sites recommend being cautious of eating raw veggies due to the water they wash them in. I am happy to report, we did not get sick, and even went back for seconds. If you want a good sandwich and want to avoid lines, try and get there early. From what we saw the line starts around noon and keeps going throughout the day. However, the women running the line are throwing your toppings in with chopsticks at lightening speeds and the line goes pretty quick, so even if your a late riser, make the time to stop by.
