LumDimSummary: Baguettes Make You Banh Mi Now!

If you didn’t happen to catch LumDimSum’s post on Banh Mi Now! passing out free mini sandwiches on Saturday, here’s what you missed:

Vietnamese White Pork Loaf Baguette

Tasty & Satisfying, these Banh Mi Vietnamese baguettes are baked fresh daily with an authentic Vietnamese recipe.

Stuffed with either 1 grilled meat or 2 chilled meats, pickled daikon and carrots, mayonnaise, pate, soy sauce, coriander, and cucumber. Served with a red-hot spicy sauce.

We tried the Vietnamese White Pork Loaf Baguette & the Vietnamese Head Cheese Baguette.

To pair with our complimentary mini baguettes, we also ordered the Goi Cuon -Shrimp & Pork Summer Rolls (RMB 23) – Shrimps wrapped with leaf lettuce, sliced pork, strips of cucumber, vermicelli, mint & Chinese chives in a fresh rice paper roll and spicy dipping sauce.

Banh Mi Now! also offers a wide range of exotic summer fruit shakes ranging from RMB 15-30 – from banana, strawberry, lychee, mango, watermelon, lime, kiwi, passionfruit, guava, coconut, durian, mangosteen, avocado, cantalope, honeymelon, pineapple, etc.

I asked Jun to make me a combination of Lychee and Honeymelon and it was absolutely delicious and refreshing. Next time, I will be more adventurous and try their highly recommended Avocado Shake.
