So I’ve heard a lot of hype about the bánh mì’s found at serial restaurant-opener Michael Hyunh’s Baoguette. We happened upon their East Village location and decided to see if their vietnamese sandwich was any good. We tried their standard bánh mì as it was a good basis for comparison.
This really is pretty much your standard bánh mì and although it’s under the guise of being cheap at $5, it’s still just a bit more expensive than Chinatown spots like Saigon Bakery. That being said, the thing tasted good, with fresh bread and your usual pork, pate, carrots, cilantro, cucumber, sriracha sauce…. but it was a little bit small and unsatisfying.
So, my verdict on the bánh mì found at Baoguette… they’re good! Quite tasty, but I’d only really hop into this place if I was in the area. Cheaper and more satisfying (and arguably better) bánh mìs are to be found in Chinatown.
