This place has been on my short-list for a long time. Looks awesome.

I couldn’t agree more.

If I’m not mistaken, the bahn mi should be two for $5. With a little cooperation from friends or coworkers you can recoup the fifty cents. Or do as I do and just eat another a little later. Indeed.

I’m sorry but this IS NOT North Carolina style BBQ. It’s more like what you’d find at The Q-Shack…Texas style.

At my office we call this “the two dollar pork sandwich place”. I guess they’ve raised the prices by a buck, it’s been a while since I’ve stopped by.

The neatest thing about this place is that it used to be open 9-9 (hence the name). Where else can you get good vietnamese food that early in the morning?

It reminds me of a place I used to frequent under the Manhattan Bridge abutting Chinatown — $6 for an incredible variety of fresh ingredients on a wonderful roll (including shrimp). A must stop when we used to drive out to Coney Island.

The bahn mi at 9N9 is probably intended to be more of a takeout item than the one at Jujube, since it’s way smaller and greasier. Although I haven’t been I hear Dalat in Raleigh has a good bahn mi too. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Great review. Thanks so much. i’m planning on heading there for lunch today with a friend and wanted to get the scoop. I’ve been searching for a good banh mi sandwich since I left NY a couple of years ago and am so happy to have found a couple. Went to Jujube last week and really enjoyed the sandwich. Though I will admit that I didn’t think the baguette was as good as it could have been but it was still great overall. Just stumbled across this blog, as a fellow (former) lawyer and foodie I greatly appreciate it. The
