Vân Mít Bánh Mì

Vân Mít Bánh Mì is a street sandwich shop near St. Joseph's Cathedral in Hanoi that sells bánh mì with chicken, egg, and grilled pork. The bread is pressed and toasted until the outside is crisp, then filled with sauce, vegetables, and meat or egg, and customers are asked whether to leave out the cilantro. It opens at 7 a.m. on weekend mornings, and customers take a number ticket and pick up their order quickly when the number is called. There are a few bathhouse chairs, with almost nowhere to sit.
