Grilled lemongrass chicken

t’s been a while since I last had a sandwich from here. Taste Baguette is a Vietnamese-inspired bakery/café chain, and while this one’s got Vietnamese grilled lemongrass chicken, the rest of the fillings are more western. Plus, they use a French-style baguette—more dense and chewy than your typical bánh mì.

They don’t skimp on the chicken either—super generous, juicy, well-marinated, and quite tasty. Bread was pretty good too—nice crust and a solid chew. But it’s a bit funny… when you think “Vietnamese” and “baguette,” your brain goes straight to bánh mì. This isn’t that—it’s definitely more westernised, and the price leans more towards café sandwich territory.

Still, I really enjoyed it. Different, but in a good way.
