Vietnam Imports
Vietnam Imports, 922 West Broad Street, Falls Church, VA, Rt. 7, right next to Panjshir, 703-867-9635, ask for Lilian (Metro Trip Planner - opens in new window) [WaPo | Yelp]
Yes they cook Indonesian food, home cooking, the real thing, but only Saturdays from 10 or so until not very late. And not every Saturday at that. The noodles are wonderful, beware the cold satay. Worth going if this is what you crave. The “restaurant” is simply a few tables in the back of the ethnic grocery, probably without proper license, etc. Recommended, but please don’t expect this to be a real restaurant. For some dedicated readers it will satisfy the Indonesian craving.

The name of the place is now "Asian Imports", though I think of couple of the signs still say "Vietnam Imports". The change was made shortly after the place was bought by the new owner a year or two ago. A better name too, since I don't believe there is a single Vietnamese import in the place. (Mostly Indonesia, with a sprinkling of Thai imports).
