Banh Mi Ba Le

Have you tried a Vietnamese sandwich before?  I have visited Banh Mi Ba Le numerous times and always left with both a happy tummy, and a happy wallet.  Banh Mi Ba Le was recommended by a good friend.  I usually order a barbecue chicken sandwich; a single serving baguette contains barbecue chicken, pickled turnip and carrots, cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeno peppers.  The bread is perfect; it is toasted but manages to be simultaneously fluffy.  The chicken is seasoned to where you taste the flavors but are not overwhelmed by them.  The vegetables create a complex mix of textures; you can hear the crunch with every sandwich bite.  If I could, I would visit Banh Mi Ba Le on a weekly basis.   Those that live close by are pretty lucky.

Thanks for stopping by!
