Thieng Heng — Restaurant in Paris

We came here to grab a light bite on our last day in paris. Having a Vietnamese sandwich in Paris was on my to-do list and this one had one of the better reviews. It's a take away place, service is quick and the sandwiches are delicious. We both had the special pork sandwich super plus! Haha back home, the small sandwiches are not very filling so not knowing what to expect here we just went with the bigger portion option for €3,30 instead of €2,70.

Out of all the sandwich places Ive eaten in(in this area) this is the worst one. Don’t believe the line/hype, it is...

Delicious and well worth the queues at peak times! Always come here to get my food to enjoy on Eurostar journey home. Fantastic sandwiches, snacks and make sure you try those desserts. Everything I’ve ever eaten here has not disappointed. Buy as much as you can carry 😋. Super popular takeaway joint as it’s right next to Tang Frères supermarket on main strip but they’re very efficient at serving so don’t let that...
