Banh Mi at Banh Pho in Hoboken, NJ

Banh Pho in Hoboken, NJ

I was looking forward to try Pho Banh in Hoboken, simply because I love Banh Mi, this Vietnamese sandwich made with soft French bread. I was not disappointed: their “special” ($10), made with a generous portion of paté, charsiu and pork patty was flavorful, cucumber and pickled carrots adding some texture, and the cilantro, some freshness. They also have a vegan version, made with sauteed tofu and mushroom, vegan mayo, cilantro, pickled carrot and daikon for also $10, that is a good deal. Only negative with this one is that the tofu is cut in cubes, instead of being long, making it a bit messy to eat. We also had their tofu spring rolls ($7) that were crispy and slightly greasy as expected, that we wrapped in lettuce and mint before bitting into them. Definitely to try! And of course, I could not resist ordering a Vietnamese coffee ($5): think about cafe au lait made with condensed milk for creaminess and sweetness.

Overall, this was really good: the food was cheap, considering the portion, tasty, and I am definitely looking forward to going back to try some other dishes there.

Enjoy (I did)!
