The road here has been widened and was one of the surprises we discovered while on our way home from our Spring Break trip earlier this year.
Our last stop was House Roots Coffee in Granada Hills...A few hours later, we were passing by downtown LA...
In the past, we usually stop in Burbank for Porto's but not this time. Instead, it was Tustin's THH Sandwiches because first of all, bathroom. Second of all, Vietnamese takout. As Mordecai and Rigby would say, "Yay-yuh!"
So this is what THH looks like in actual daylight! We've only been here in the wee morning hours. They do open at 5:30 am. Even earlier than nearby Cream Pan bakery.
For my parents - the variety pack of spring rolls (Chinese sausage, shrimp and pork paste) and for TC, the shrimp only.
A few minutes away was Cream Pan. I picked up a few items there as well.
Cream Pan is well known for their strawberry croissants.
Interesting bread man thing there.
I've tried most of the pastries here and I love pretty much all of them.
Chocolate chip bread rolls and sesaame rolls (those were for the parents):
The doubles were to be shared with us and my sister - hot dog buns, melon pans, beef curry bun and solely for us, the pecan roll.
Home sweet home...
