small h Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Some highlights from my visit (with four others) to the 3rd weekend pop-up of Banh Anh-Em , sister to the rabidly popular Banh on the UWS. I got there an hour before opening and was first in line (though only for about thirty seconds). Totally worth it. Noodle soup with crab & snail (so crabby! so snaily!). Turmeric catfish, fatty and excellent, with dill and (unnecessary, according to me) rice noodles. Sticky rice with egg and a variety of meats, very kindly placed on the side to accommodate my meat-averse self. I will be stalking this place for their weekend specials. It's so much more convenient for me than the Morningside Heights one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweatshorts Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 How bad was the line/wait by the time they opened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
small h Posted March 31 Author Share Posted March 31 Around 40 people, and once everyone who could fit was sat, they switched to a virtual wait list (with a scan code), so no one had to stand around outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
