A Vietnamese sandwich, typically served on a baguette, and somewhat resembling a submarine sandwich.
You will think this is a produce store or market, but never would you guess that inside, sweet Vietnamese ladies will make you a banh mi to rival all banh mis, and that noodle soups and plate lunches can be pumped out of here like nobody's business.
