What for breakfast in Vietnam: Bánh Mì.

Tourists in Vietnam love bánh mì and can be seen eating it all the time: for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. However, among Vietnamese, it is considered more of a breakfast or lunch meal, rather than the main meal.

The spicy Vietnamese sandwich needs little introduction: a French baguette, fresh herbs, secret sauces (sweet-n-sour mixed with mayonnaise perhaps?), and an endless variety of toppings, from North to South and everywhere in between — and increasingly taking over the cosmopolitan cities of the West. However, the Western banh mi’s pale in comparison to the real thing.
