What’s better: Grilled Pork or BBQ Pork?

Ohh that is always a hard question. The grilled pork always reminds me of my mom’s cooking. Waking up to the smell of sizzling garlic and laughter in the kitchen…But the tangy sweetness of the BBQ park is to die for too! I don’t know, just get both :)

Is your Steak Sandwich like a Philly Cheesesteak?

Hmm…not really. Our steak is more like a traditional shaking beef dish marinated in garlic, shallots, spices, and soy sauce. Then cooked to order. Seriously? I love our Steak Sandwich!

What are your most popular sandwiches?

Ok, let’s narrow this down. First I’d ask, “Banh Mi or Euro sandwich?” Our most popular Banh Mi would be the Lee’s Combination if you’d like a tasty cold cut, grilled chicken, or grilled pork and definitely can’t go wrong with BBQ pork. Now the Euro, I’m a meat eater so the Lee’s Club stacked with roast beef, turkey, and ham on a croissant is BOMB! Or our Steak Sandwich, a mix-breed of Asian flavors and of course, who can go wrong with a simple turkey/ham and cheese sandwich.

What choices do you have for vegans, vegetarians, and pescatarians?

We have plenty of vegan-friendly dishes and more to come.
