"Lengthy lines for banh mi, catered to with brisk efficiency, are the norm at lunch time at Huong Lan. The secret is to grab a table, order from a server, and eat your sandwich at leisure. The ultra-sweet, lusciously fatty grilled pork at Huong Lan is unique to them and either loved or loathed for the marbled fattiness, but the quality of the bread and distribution of toppings for the banh mi can be uneven. Grab a banh mi at Duc Huong or Long Sandwich and order banh hoi thit nuong (grilled pork over rice noodles) at Huong Lan. It’s the same pork that goes in the sandwiches, on noodles with salad, herbs and fish sauce dressing." - Becky Grunewald
