Bánh Mì Bà Nga
Description
A street stall doing bánh mì the way it should be done: fast, fresh, and cheap at 30,000 VND a sandwich. The kind of place where people who spend serious time eating their way through Vietnam end up declaring it the best one they had in the whole country (and some of these people were eating 25 bánh mì in three days, so they have opinions).
The elderly owners run the show with genuine warmth, and the egg bánh mì in particular lands softer and more nuanced than the sauce-heavy assembly suggests it will. Worth knowing: a woman from a nearby clothing shop sometimes swoops in to take orders as if she works here. She does not. Just wave her off and order directly.
