    I HIGHLY recommend Pho Hoang (Vietnamese Cuisine and BBQ) on Kissena Blvd. Although they may not fit the budget of $5, they have the best char siu and pho I've ever tried. The broth for the pho (火車頭) is so rich, and a large bowl is only $10 and the char siu has the best balance between meat, fat, and smoky flavor!

It used to be $5.50 for 3 sides on rice and it comes with either soup or bottle water. I would buy two lunch boxes and have enough for 3-4 meals. I haven't gone back in awhile so I'm not sure they raised their prices. They also sell pretty good dim sum.
