Lu's Sandiwches

We picked up carryout form Lu's sandwiches. I had been craving a bahn mi and had not had once since early this year when I was still going into work. Ya know, during the before times. Anyway, we placed our order online and everything was ready on arrival. 

John had the pan-fried chicken bowl (Thit Ga Chien), which comes with green onions, pickled carrot and daikon mix, mixed greens, mint, cucumber, jalapenos, cilantro, and your choice of sauce. Choose a base of vermicelli noodles or rice. He also added an egg roll on the side. He really liked this rice bowl and said he'd order it again. 
I had the pock bahn mi on a fresh baguette with green onions, pickled carrot and daikon mix, jalapeños, cilantro, cucumber, pork pâté, house mayo, and soy sauce. This was a very good bahn mi and the meat and bread were great quality.

Lyn 65

We visited Lyn 65 back when it was patio season. So this report is a tad delayed. I have some nice photos and the food was all excellent, so I wanted to share our visit anyway. 

John had the Lyn 65 cheeseburger with mustard pickles, american cheese, shallot and fries. The fries were excellent and tasted freshly cut and cooked. Great burger too. 
We shared the crispy brussels sprouts with mama lil peppers, Parmesan and sherry vinaigrette. 
I had the scallops with miso, cauliflower puree, 
I had the scallops with miso, cauliflower puree, sage oil and basalmic reduction. The scallops were perfectly seared and everything worked well together. It was a perfect light meal with the brussels sprouts. 

The patio was nice and spaced out and the service was good as well. We've always had good visits to Lyn 65 and wish it was closer to home because the food is great.
