I HAVESPENDOVER500DOLLARSFORBANHCUNG… Guess what. It was all gifted for my friends and family… I kept one of my family … Opened it up and look it here… They went cheapo. On us!!! One for 27 bucks … I bought 20!!! Now I’m thinking about all the banh Cung I gifted my friends && families… Wow, thanks a lot. I wanted them to have top quality banh Cung… Guess it’s no longer that quality… Disappointed 540 down the drain… No longer buying from here again.

I can’t believe I just paid $ 27 for a banh chung and I’m not mad about it. We were in the area and since it was tet, decided to look up some places to buy banh chung. Nguyen Huong was close to us, so off we went. When we got there, we found out it was $ 27 for banh chung and $ 8 for the pickled veggies that went with it. We didn’t bring enough cash and they didn’t have an ATM machine. We were just a few dollars short and the nice gentleman let us have both, and just said to come back next year. He’s so sweet, I felt great leaving there. When we got home, we realized why their banh chung was so pricey. They got the recipe down pat. The rice was chewy and sticky, the mung beans were super soft and creamy, and the pork was extra tender and not dry at all. I’ve been eating it for 2 days straight and I’m not tired of it yet. I think I’m going to have it again for dinner tonight. $ 27…totally worth the money. This would be a good gift to give out since it’s so well made. Thanks to the team at Nguyen Huong for your kindness and for the awesome food. One thing that could be done better is the younger chubby girl that works at the counter. Smiles are free. If you’re going to have ML face, maybe you should work in the back. I almost walked out after seeing how she treated her customers. I’m glad the gentleman came back by the time I got to the front of the line or I never would have purchased anything here.

They have one of the best cha hue, but for $ 10.50 a roll is pretty steep considering all of their other cha range from $ 7 – 8. Their cha lua wasn’t that great and the nam chua was not flavorful at all! a stick of Nam Chua was $ 14!!! so expensive for something that does not have flavor. When I’m back in cali, i will remember what’s good and what’s not good here.

I have walked by here a million times and never noticed it. The store always looks empty. I decided to come in one day after reviewing Unilocal.The Cha lua is $ 7.50 for a roll. I wasn’t sure it was worth it until I got home and sliced it. It’s delicious and super fresh. Same for their banh it. Would definitely return for more Cha lua. I have gotten too many old Cha lua at grocery stores so I’m delighted to find this place.

This local mom and pop recipes have been passing down from generation to generation. Their Cha Lua is one of the best, it’s a little more expensive then any other places but it’s worth the money and the qualities are undeniable. I don’t eat cha lua anywhere else but here!

I’ve never been to this place but was given one of their banh chung by a friend. This place makes the best Banh Chung I’ve ever had and I usually don’t like banh chung or ever really eat it. A friend of mine gave me this, after I took one bite it became several bites, next thing I’m eating ¼ of it in one sitting then I finished the entire thing over a course of 3 days. Just like the other Unilocaler said«even though you leave this item in the fridge the sticky rice will not harden like all the other places that sell banh chung and the sticky rice stays fresh and soft even after 5 days». Heard my friend said banh gio here is very good also. Looking forward to trying it next time.

Once again a Mommy recommended place for Vietnamese delicacies. Honestly, who would know where to buy Cha Lua(besides the supermarket)? This place specializes in ALL different types of CHA(Vietnamese pork roll/sausage). Remember what your Mama taught you b/c there are lots of options. I basically«choked» and forgot the exact name of the cha I needed. Well, I knew, but wasn’t 100%. Lady who worked there helped me out. I simply asked her what cha I needed for my Banh Cuon and she guided me in the right direction. Sweet! CHALUA: $ 7 a roll. –it was fresh and warm. –well seasoned. Complemented my Banh Cuon to the T! –had a nice bite to it. –I stored it in the fridge. Maintained it’s consistency and freshness. My GO-TO place for Cha from now on!

Awesome banh chung(square cake) and gio lua, gio thu(vietnamese sausages). Gio cost about $ 7, $ 8/piece. Banh chung cost $ 25/piece. Worth every penny. It’s a small shop so if you drive by you probably won’t notice it. Parking can get crazy if you go during lunch time as the parking lot is for all the restaurants/businesses in the plaza. They only accept cash. Banh chung– just the right amount of ingredients. Not too peppery like most places. Normally, I would fry it after it’s been sitting in the fridge for a few days. But this one still taste great just by microwaving. Great flavor. I wish I knew this place sooner.

This place is a little place with food: P(who doesnt know that right?) But this place has a traditional banh gio and banh chung. i honestly do not know what they would call it in english but then their foods are delicious: D Banh Gio — this item has ground beef with thinly sliced mushrooms wrapped around in a jello like dough. But the outer appearance is wrapped with banana leaves. It has a trapezoid shape. This item might look weird but its really delicious. My little brother likes to eat this with soy sauce but i like it just the way it taste and look. Its pretty small so you have to eat a couple to feel full. Banh Chung — If you know how big a small Victoria Secret giftbox look like then you know how big this dish is. This item is wrapped with banana leaves just like the one above but then in the middle it has grounded up green beans with pork meat, the out consists of sticky rice. This can get very fulling quick and some people get sick of it(as in eating it too much and wouldnt want to see it) My family calls me weird for being able to eat a big chunk of it without getting sick… But this Banh Chung is really delicious. Even though you leave this item in the fridge the sticky rice will not harden like all the other places that sell banh chung. and the sticky rice stays fresh and soft even after 5 days that i have bought it. Normally the vietnamese community would buy these and banh tet as a gift to each other for the lunar new year. I love there food: P This is not a resturant its more like a togo place.

This carry out shop has some of the best gio and cha in the US. If you are from out of town, don’t worry, just freeze the beef cha and it will keep perfectly fine! Word to the wise, they run out pretty quick, so go early to get the full selection of yummies
