"Since 2016, Bao Bao has gotten creative with its banh mi, marinating its meats and proteins in sauces like lemongrass soy sauce, Hawaiian pineapple glaze, and Korean gochujang. Try the pork, pate, and grilled chicken-loaded “special,” or the bulgogi rib-eye beef banh mi — both of which are topped with jalapeno, pickled carrots, cucumbers, jalapeno, cilantro, and garlic aioli. Vegetarian? Opt for alternatives made with avocado or caramelized tofu." - Minh Truong, Brittany Britto Garley
