Bahn Mi is Vietnamese sandwiches, and they're good. They're definitely on the cutting edge of what Norristown will be. Go here for lunch or light fare, and try the smoothies. Be warned - there's no alcohol here, but you can BYOB and spike your smoothie!

Sightseeing
West Marshall St has really built itself into a cool place. I wouldn't call it touristy or cosmopolitan. It's a place where real people go.
