Pho Herb is a Vietnamese food cart located in the Cartlandia food pod in Portland, Oregon. This cart uses the old Chili Pie Palace cart that closed in July 2011.

I ordered the Vietnamese sandwich ($4). Otherwise known as "banh mi," it consists of lettuce, cilantro, carrots, pickled radish, and choice of meat (I chose chicken), topped with a house plum sauce. I requested the banh mi spicy, so the cart owner (Anna, I believe?) added some sriracha on top.

Commence the angelic music! The chicken was juicy and flavorful. You can't beat fresh veggies here, its refreshing nature balances this meal out and sends subliminal messages: "keep eating...keep eating." The plum sauce and sriracha were very tasty.
The "winner, winner, chicken dinner" for me was the bread. A French roll that should be used in all sandwiches. The ideal firm outside provided the heavenly crunch, and a soft inside helped savor the moment.
For the pho lovers, this cart does pho too! No doubt about it, I'm a fan. Check out Pho Herb ASAP!
