Made a rare visit to Chinatown to try a Shrimp Plate at Blue Seafood. The Shrimp were not that great so we decided to try a Banh Mi at Vietnam Pho and Sandwiches in the same food court. Wow...this was good. The Special Banh Mi had some really good flavors and was probably the second best Banh Mi I have had in Hawaii next to BaLe Sandwich.

BA-LE SANDWICH

Don't know why, but every time we travel to the mainland or abroad I crave a Banh Mi Sandwich and Pho. Ba-Le is my "go to" place in Honolulu. Looks like they closed the Ba-Le in Hawaii Kai which is the best on Oahu. Ordered this takeout from another location on Door Dash. Not as good as Hawaii Kai but it did hit the spot!

Another day craving a Banh Mi and Pho. I have free delivery with Door Dash so I went online and ordered from Pho Vietnam. Delivered to my office for lunch. Pretty good

My go to meal after a mainland trip has become a Banh Mi and Pho. My fave is from Bale in Hawaii Kai but for some reason they do not offer delivery service. I ordered online and within 45 minutes had my meal at home. The Banh Mi was not bad but not in same league as Bale which fills the sandwich with more meat, cheese and veggies. The Pho was pretty good.

TAKE OUT DINNER AT HOME

Another mainland trip and we come home to our go to meal from Bale Sandwich. For some reason we crave this meal every time we return from a trip. LOVE the Special Banh Mi with Cheese plus extra pickled veggies and no mayo. Rare Steak Pho is always good. This is comfort food for me and the Banh Mi is my all-time favorite.

I liked the food, service and cleanliness of Pho Que Huong in Chinatown. Food came out lightning fast so we were enjoying the Beef Pho in minutes. Thought the Pho could use a little more flavor in the broth. Banh Mi was pretty good and the bread was fresh. Not my fave Vietnamese restaurant in Honolulu, but a solid place to eat.
