Wasn't real sure what I was going to get when I ordered th "Pho"ggie and La Tour Cafe ($15.90). Menu said Wagyu Beef, House-made "Pho" Mayo, Thai Basil, Red Leaf Lettuce, Shaved Onions, Cilantro and Fresh Jalapeño. A Spin on Vietnamese Pho Soup which I love. I ordered the sandwich without the Pho-Mayo but now I am wishing I would have tried it because I have no idea what Pho-Mayo is. Should have asked. The Sandwich was delicious. Lots of Beef. I could swear there was Cucumber on the bottom of the sandwich and the Jalapeños and Cilantro gave it a pop. My Wife enjoyed the Meatball Banh Mi ($11.90). Both sandwiches served with a small salad.

I was not a big fan of La Tour Cafe when they opened up their first location on Nimitz Highway. Now that they have a new location closer to home I may visit them more often. The new restaurant in located in Aina Haina were Foodland Farms is the anchor tenant. We stopped in for lunch and waited in line at the counter. With only one cashier it was kind of slow but the gal behind the counter was all smiles and really made people feel welcome. I went for The Italian Sandwich ($10) which comes with a small salad and house made pickles. The sandwich was very thin for an Italian Sandwich. The Sesame Brioche bread was delicious. Really could not taste the individual meats which included Salami, Sopressata, Mortadella and Prosciutto. The only thing I could taste was the Arugula and Balsamic Dressing. The Arugula was really overpowering all of the other flavors. A little more meat and less or no Arugula would have been nice. The side salad was good and we loved the house made pickles. My Daughter enjoyed her Chicken Pesto Panini ($10) and also liked the side salad. This is a nice little neighborhood spot where you can pick up a quick quality meal.
