"Houston’s de facto Vietnamese diner, Thíên Ân Sandwiches in Midtown, should be on everyone’s go-to list for a dependable, quick lunch. All the food, from the bánh mì to the phở, is solid, and everything arrives fast. One dish you’ll likely see on every table is the massive, golden bánh xèo, a wok-sized crepe stuffed with pork, shrimp, and bean sprouts that comes with fish sauce for dunking. While it’s big enough to share, you can also tackle one alone if you have some feelings to work out." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
