Their specialty is viet subs, which IMO are the best in town, especially the saté subs. But Helen (owner) will make the frozen food if you order it ahead of time. Just a heads up, it's cash only place.

Well worth it and it's a hit at every big dinner event. I just deep fry them an hour before my dinner and bring them fresh. It's really is simple.

She also makes dumplings! i've never actually ordered frozen stuff from her, but every now and then when I eat there I hear someone ordering them. But yeah definitely my favourite Viet assorted sub in town. Their sate is also good, but I still give the (slight) edge in that department to Thi Thi next door.

Yeah her frozen dumplings and wontons are great.

As for Thi Thi, I hope you are not referring to the chain of Thai Thai right across the intersection on 1st and 3rd? That place is no good.

But if you mean the hole in the wall place just on the east side of the building (I don't know the name), I have also heard good things about it. However I am loyal to Trung Nguyen.

Banh Mi Thi Thi is the hole in the wall place.
