I've never had a banh mi in the South Bay, but I hear they're great -- maybe even better than those you can find in our neck of the woods. But the South Bay isn't of concern today. Getting down the Peninsula isn't a great strategy when looking for a cheap, quick lunch. Instead, we're pitting two stalwarts of the San Francisco and Oakland Vietnamese sandwich game against one another: the Tenderloin's Saigon Sandwich and East Oakland's Banh Mi Ba Le.
We all likely look for different things when eating banh mi. I know people who swear by tofu or even chicken, but to me, the ultimate expression of the banh mi is found in the combination specials. A savory melange of assorted pork spreads and deli slices, the best of these combos exhibit balance between the meat, toppings, and crisp-fluffy bread. Which side of the bay serves the best?
