The Best Lunch Spots In Hollywood - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"It’s hard for us to even say “Cahuenga” without picking up a banh mi from Banh Oui. In some ways, we prefer these somewhat non-traditional versions over the straightforward cold cut or grilled pork iterations you’ll find at places like My Dung or Saigon’s Sandwich. For starters, the insides of the baguettes here are always fluffy and soft, with a crunchy exterior. Chicken liver oozes out of the sides at even the gentlest touch. And fillings aren’t typical—they’ve got chicken katsu, fried rock shrimp, sous vide duck breast, and plentyof vegetarian options. We gravitate towards the katsu, balanced out with loads of herbs and crunchy pickled vegetables. Banh Oui is fast, it’s fresh, and if you set your mind to it, one sandwich (and maybe a side of fries or mushroom salad?) can stretch into two meals. " - Brant Cox, Arden Shore
