Classic Banh Mi

from Lokha

June 20258.5 / 10

Viet cold cuts, pickled carrot, cucumber, lettuce, onion, shallot, pâté, special pickled mayo, house-made soy sauce & chilli on Viet baguette

I’m back at Lokha for another quick lunch—this time keeping it classic with their cold cut bánh mì. I was running behind today and needed something fast but satisfying. Despite the crowd, the sandwich came out almost immediately, which I really appreciate.

It was exactly what I needed—fresh, tasty, and light enough not to slow me down. The bread was solid as always: fluffy on the inside with just the right amount of crust. The fillings were fresh and generous, and I liked how balanced everything felt. The pâté and mayo added enough richness, and the fresh herbs and pickles brought that signature bánh mì brightness.

Nothing too fancy, but done well. The kind of classic that never goes out of style. I still think their karaage is my top pick, but this one did the job and kept me going.

Another visit, another sandwich.
