What to Order
3 dishes
Dac Biet (Special Combination Bánh Mì)
$8.00
The definitive order: Vietnamese pork cold cuts, headcheese, and pâté layered into a crackling baguette with pickled vegetables, jalapeño, and fresh cilantro — a textbook example of the form.
BBQ Pork Bánh Mì
$7.00
Char-edged slices of smoky, slightly sweet thịt nướng tucked into the same masterful baguette — a cleaner, crowd-pleasing alternative to the special.
Meatball Bánh Mì
$7.00
Bouncy, seasoned Vietnamese pork meatballs with a slightly saucier profile — a favourite among regulars who want something heartier.
