I'm the first to review! Maybe because this gem is a little hard to find. It's on the backside of the plaza, not facing the road, but facing 1st Oriental Supermarket. I wasn't sure what they had at 0800 to eat and my husband is VERY American, so I was a little (a lot) scared.
My husband wanted coffee and he likes hot coffee, but they only had iced. I looked at him for approval, and surprisingly, he said "sure". I got an Iced Latte, a Pate Chaud and per the little Vietnamese lady's recommendation, Banh Mi Thit Nuong (Grilled Pork Sandwich). I wasn't sure if this white boy was down for a sandwich for breakfast, but, AGAIN, he obliged. Everything was delicious and FRESH! I was pleasantly surprised by the Pate Chaud. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was amazing. The flaky pastry crumbled and melted in my mouth at the same time. I had to take a second bite immediately to get the pate taste. My husband said I should have gotten another one, especially since it was only $1!!!! Well, he went back for FIVE more.
We NEVER come on this side of town and I was so excited that he wanted to browse. I would definitely return to this hot spot...just not at night. :) read more
