        <content>Where are some decent lunch places in this area? Have to be here for business for 3 weeks. Dinner recommendations would be welcome, too. Dinner can be Buena Park, Fountain  Valley, Westminster, Garden Grove and any of the beach areas. Love Vietnamese, Mexican, Korean and Middle Eastern. Thanks!</content>

      <content>Here are some prior threads that will cover a wide swath of the OC.  For Vietnamese you can't do better than getting a reply from Das Ubergeek (who hopefully will notice your post and chime in at some point).  You also might google for a very excellent OC food blog by Elmomonster who provides lots of great OC eating ideas and wonderful photos of the food as well.
