3 Asian Sisters

"Just in time for soup season, here’s a new place to get pho in Lincoln Park. This Vietnamese spot also has banh mi with lemongrass chicken or pork roll, as well as appetizers like spring rolls and soy-glazed wings." - john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen

"3 Asian Sisters is a beacon of hope for anyone that lives in the area or DePaul students needing a quick phở or bánh mì break between lectures that double as nap time. The beef phở from this counter-service Vietnamese spot near the Fullerton Red Line only has a couple of meat options like brisket and meatball, but they’re both tasty and come with a delicate, savory broth. The most flavorful phở is the chicken—it’s light with a comforting saltiness. If you're more of a sandwich person, the bánh mì here is also solid, with delicious options like classic pork roll or BBQ pork, all served on a crackly, soft baguette." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru

A lime squeeze adds brightness to the ideal slurp of broth-laced noodles, shredded farm bird, bean sprouts, green onion, and chopped onion. photo credit: John Ringor Beef Phở The beef pho here is very light, not too sweet, and not too spice-heavy. Unlike other spots that offer a variety of cuts like tendon or flank steak, 3 Asian Sisters only has brisket and meatballs—we like to get a combo of both. photo credit: John Ringor Bánh Mì They have a bunch of different bánh mì to choose from, but we like going for the Saigon Classic. The meaty mix of pate, pork roll, and ham is nicely complemented by all of the fresh and pickled vegetables, and the mayo adds creaminess to each bite." - John Ringor
