Light, crisp baguette loaded with mayo, liver pâté, savory meats, pickled veggies, and cilantro

Vietnamese · Little Saigon and Spring Brook · $
The classic combo of Vietnamese pork cold cuts, pâté, pickled daikon and carrots, jalapeño, and cilantro on a freshly baked baguette — the benchmark dish here

The house plant-based banh mi — crispy baguette stuffed with pickled daikon and carrots, jalapeños, cilantro, and a vegan protein like lemongrass tofu or jackfruit with house sauce
Bakery · Alum Rock · $
Freshly baked Vietnamese baguette with a crackling crust and airy interior — the foundational product of any serious Vietnamese bakery
Char-kissed sliced pork with the same fresh vegetable and herb profile — slightly sweeter than the combination and a crowd favorite for those who want something straightforward

Vegan banh mi with mock meat filling, pickled daikon and carrot, jalapeño, and cilantro on a crisp baguette
Char-grilled pork slices with the standard banh mi fixings — slightly smoky and satisfying, a go-to for those who want something warmer than the cold cut version
The vegetarian option done right — marinated tofu that holds its own against the pickled vegetables and herbs without feeling like an afterthought
