Nestled in a vibrant red corner of the Richmond District, Bread N' Chu serves up impeccably thick, crustless Japanese milk bread sandwiches, with the chicken katsu stealing the show among inventive fillings like Spam and egg salad, perfect for a delightful takeout picnic.
"The Park: The Presidio Simple is best, especially when you’re complicating your life by entering the maze of eerie bunkers, parking lots, golf courses, and fields known as the Presidio. Bread n’ Chu delivers. They’re a takeout-only Japanese sandwich spot in the Outer Richmond serving uncomplicated, mathematically perfect square sandwiches, like egg salad, choux, and potato croquette. The star is the chicken katsu sandwich, featuring only chicken, shredded cabbage, a layer of mayo, and crustless milk bread. " - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong
"Sarah Lin owned a boba shop in South San Francisco, before switching over to her favorite crustless sandwiches in the Richmond. She cuts her fluffy milk bread quite thick, and in addition to pork and chicken, regulars love the Spam and egg, golden truffled egg salad, and striking strawberry choux." - Becky Duffett
