"Bun & Mi is a serene, tiny Vietnamese counter spot in Santa Monica that’s easy to drive by. But you should make a point to stop and try their bánh mì sandwiches, loaded with your choice of pork belly, chicken, shaken beef, tofu with mushrooms, or garlic shrimp. The beef is a divinely marinated cut of filet mignon that oozes into the mayo against the soft interior of the baguette. Pick one up for a lunch to remember." - anne cruz
