So I’m always on the hunt for a Vietnamese deli close by. Coming from Washington state and being able to enjoy the international district in Seattle I was very disappointed to see how very little options I had out in San Diego. This place popped up on my Yelp and I had to give it a try! When I saw it it was a Monday so I was pretty bummed but they were closed. I work locally so I figured I would round up my coworkers and see if they wanted to order some Vietnamese sandwiches. We ordered chicken, pork, the combo, and several other dishes.

Also shoutouts to the staff, they have always...
