I’m trying to find a decent veg banh mi downtown that can rival Mcqueens from Hamilton. So far, this one from Banh Mi Vina is the best I’ve found and I haven’t seen much hype about it. Super tiny shop in a laundromat! The bread was fresh and crispy, lot’s of mayo and spice too. I’ll definitely be going here often!
I’ve also tried Banh Mi Nguyen Huong in Chinatown and found the bread stale and the sandwich lacklustre. I like the banh mi from Saigon Snacks but it’s completely different from this style (soft bun with sautéed veg.) I also enjoyed the $5 banh mi from the shop inside the Nations at the stockyards.
All I want is a crispy fresh baguette with fresh veg, seasoned tofu, loads of mayo and spice!
Any other recommendations?
