Got this from local food truck. He’s on the intersection of John street and Water street and his sandwiches are SOOOO good. The chicken is so juicy and the bread is so soft and fresh. The guy works so hard and is so friendly wanted to give him a plug!

    Homie that run the food truck is a sweetheart, he deserves the recognition

  3. 8$ for a meal in FiDi?! Unless you have the tiniest of hands, sign me up!

    I used to work near that side of FiDi pre-COVID, happy to see he’s kept the Banh Mis $8 even after inflation

    oh man this cart is one of the only reasons i miss going to the office

  7. I live like two blocks away and have walked past this cart so many times but never actually tried it… Shame on me. Will try it for lunch tomorrow!

    I’m sure it’s good but it’s hard to not drool over my memories of 80cent banh mis in Vietnam

  17. DerpyDumplings

    Does he only come in Tuesday/Thursdays? I went to office yesterday and was so disappointed he wasn’t there lol

    Saving this post so the next time I’m down there I pass by.. looks delicious!

    I walked past this truck the other day but didn’t get anything, next time maybe I will

  20. _coolbluewater_

    Wait – that’s near where I work!! In office Tuesdays and Thursdays, can’t wait to try

    Used to be a banh mi cart at Hanover square. Oh my God it was so good. #7 spicy beef. I can still hear myself making that order.

  22. CodnmeDuchess

    I’ve been meaning to check out that truck forever—glad to know it’s good

  23. SquirrelofLIL

    They raised it to $8? I remember it was $6. Damn…

  24. Was there a decent amount of pickled carrots and daikon radish? I mainly judge a banh mi on the crispy airy bread and the balance of the sweet and sour pickled vegetables.

    I feel bad for folks that taste soap from cilantro. It’s such a big component in Mexican and SE Asian food.

    Ahhh!! Finally a new lunch for me to try out in the area 🥲 Is the spot cash only?

  26. I work right by there and that food truck is great. I don’t go there often though cause I cook at home. I also like the Ethiopian food truck which is normally there on Thursday.
