Asian grocery with sandwiches?

In Boston's Chinatown area I used to always go to this asian grocery store for this unbelievable BBQ Sandwich, with veggies, pork, fish sauce, etc.
Is there anywhere in Philly, asian market, with such sandwiches?

    don't know about what kind of sandwich that is, vietnamese i guess.

    my favorite place for vietnamese sandwiches is a bakery on the corner of 6th and washington. spelled
    "ba le". they have a lot of cool drinks and snacks.
    the bread is awesome, 4 rolls for a buck.
    can't miss it, it's set apart from the rest of the shopping center.
    get the chicken hoagies, although the other ones are good too.
    $2 each, buy 5, get 1 free.
    pork sounds interesting though. you should ask if they can make that. post afterwards so i know how things come out. i'd like to try it with pork.
