Bánh Mì Hòa Mã

One of my favorite morning meals in town! Bánh Mì Hòa Mã does deconstructed bánh mì so well. There’s beauty in simplicity their menu keeps it minimal with only two food choices and a few drinks, allowing them to focus entirely on quality and flavor. Dipping that warm, crispy baguette into the sizzling skillet is pure comfort food. A must-visit!

This is perfect hangover food. Simple and familiar ingredients but exquisite when eaten this way. You need to dunk the crusty bread into the molten egg yolk and salty ham juices in the pan.

This banh mi shop opened up in 1958, and I think it’s the first banh mi shop to be established (?) And it’s still around and popular even today, having been run by 3 generations of the same family. As everyone would say, there isn’t anything special or memorable about this place at all, but of course, it tastes decent, as it’s quite difficult to mess up on this simple dish. I just came here because it’s near my house and I don’t know what else to get that day, plus I was in a rush to get back home to pack up. It’s quite a peaceful location that runs along an alley. Not a bad choice for breakfast/brunch. The dish is sunny side up eggs with assorted meats in a very characteristically Vietnamese skillet. Bánh mì ốp la đủ thứ 58.000 VND (2 sunny side up eggs with assorted pork meats) Cà phê sữa đá 12.000 VND (Iced coffee) I also purchased a side of pâté and butter, not very fragrant though, but okay, decent.

Great place to stop in for breakfast. Even with an extremely busy atmosphere, service was quick and staff were friendly - even one of the women in the kitchen stopped over and added sauce to the meal for additional flavor. I walked in, was seated and food delivered within 5 mins. I would definitely recommend this place.

One of the oldest if not the oldest Banh Mi place is Saigon. It instantly became my go to place for banh mi opla. The staff is super kind, the service is fast and the food is delicious. I cant stand sensitive tourists who dare to give one star to this place really, if you cannot handle real authentic street food DO NOT TRAVEL and stick to mcdonalds
