Ba Le Lo Cha & Banh Mi Thit — Restaurant in Garland

Their sandwiches are decent. Ba Le was around long before any of the other banh mi places opened up. I actually prefer the banh mi thit nguoi here over the thit nguoi at Quoc Bao. The meats are just more flavorful and tasty. Whenever I go here, I opt for a banh mi thit nguoi with a small nuoc mia.

She said she hasn’t had it for the last 2 years because she’s not done with it yet and hangs up on me! OMG....who treats their customers like that? For better cha and service use Duc Huong ( next to Hiep Thai on Walnut). For MUCH better banh mi and service use Quoc Bao in...
