Profile

Don't be fooled by the jewelry-store facade: This schitzophrenic Chinatown storefront is actually home to some of the city's best Vietnamese sandwiches. In case you're unfamiliar with the concept, imagine a baguette-style roll toasted and anointed with mayo and hot sauce, then stuffed with various pig products—in this case, paté, pork roll, and succulent roast pork. The coup de grace is the lovingly applied vegetal matter: sliced cucumbers, hot peppers, pickled carrots, and cilantro. No less a connoisseur than chef Sara Jenkins gets her bánh mì fix here, after grabbing her ticket at Di Palo across the street. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

I think banh mi's are an acquired test and if you like them, I definitely encourage a visit. The sandwiches are quite yummy. I myself prefer the pate and cha.
