- Most people think a Banh Mi 'Vietnamese Baguette" is one thing, but the reality is Vietnamese Baguettes are filled with a variety of fillings and can be eaten in many different styles. We are taking on the challenge or rating all of the dozens and dozens of varieties of Banh Mi's commonly available all throughout Vietnam. In this episode we show a few off a few the delicious options commonly available on the street.

I lived for 3 years in Vietnam and had a banh mi for breakfast almost every morning. For breakfast nothing beats a basic bánh mì thịt nguội with pate and cold cuts and if you want something more filling as a snack, the best choice is bánh mì heo quay.
Banh mi cha ca is so underrated, arguably one of the best.
thats for sure
Banh mi and condensed milk is so good! And honestly yeah banh mi doesn't always have to have pate. Its all about balance of flavors. For myself there are certain banh mi I would not want pate in because it would be too overwhelming and too much!
Bánh mì que Hải Phòng, one of my favourites! It has to be on the list.
I'm here for part 2, 3 and all the ones after! Might take Chad his whole life just to try literally EVERY Banh Mi shop in HCM, let alone Hanoi lol
So glad to hear it. We were hoping people would like this series. We had fun with it
There are even some bread vendor that put a copius amount of filling inside the bread. One of the vendor i know is Huynh Hoa in Saigon. I would say it is something you should try it once or from time to time
Bao nhiêu tiền
Lived in Vietnam for five years and moved back to California in Dec '22. My wife and I are visiting her family this summer and my mind is already going crazy thinking about getting my favorite banh mi: 2 eggs, pate, pickles, mayo, chilis, salt, pepper, and soy sauce.
Food tier list? Love it! Great editing on this video man 👍👍👍
Thank you for your amazing work. You’re doing a great job at explaining and describing the items you are eating, making them less intimidating for foreigners but without ever exoticizing or leaning into the sensational or the shocking.
Thanks Chad, you are helping Việt Nam’s food culture and tradition reach a broader and more global audience. Cảm ơn anh rất nhiều ( coming from a French-Viet mixed )
Thank you, I appreciate that.
Visiting Vietnam for the first time in a week! Your channel is a gold mine. Im so excited
Awesome, have a great trip
Welcome to our country. Have a nice trip!
Welcome to Vietnam. How was the experience?
@@tengun Oh man it was amazing. both me and my girlfriend are definitely coming back. Everyone was so nice.
@@adk5980 I'm glad you had a good time ;)
Glad that you show every banh mi varieties out there !! Keep it going, I love your videos ❤
We are trying, thank you so much
I will add some recommendations for your next banhmi tier video:
- omelette banhmi
- roasted duck banhmi
- Vietnamese style meatball banhmi
- roasted pork banhmi
I hope you like them!
Up North, specifically Lạng Sơn (idk about others, i asked my friends who are from different regions and they said they don't have this dish). It's called Bánh mì nướng, basically, it's bánh mì grilled over charcoal and brushed with lard and oyster sauce. You can have it like other types of bánh mỳ with grilled meats, pate, sausage, vegetables..... Fillings Or you can cut up everything bite size and have it platter style with dipping sauces. Popular student breakfast or late night snack.
Looking forward for other parts.
Bro... Bánh mỳ nướng Lạng Sơn với dầu hào aka the best kind of Banh my. You can't get the same flavor from anywhere else except from the OG Lang Son
Nowhere else have this not even in HaNoi
Every time i came back to my hometown, thị trấn Bắc Sơn in Lạng Sơn, i always enjoy Banh Mi nuong
Nowhere else have this style of banh mi
Love it when it is hot
Wish I had seen this two weeks ago when I was there. 2nd trip to hcmc in 5 months and so many foods I don’t even know what to try. My fiancé who is local does a great job taking me to different places to try new foods but I will need to show her this video so we can find some of these places next trip. Back in the States until October and missing Vietnam. Thanks for your videos.
Editing is immaculate, great content as always. Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you so much, we are working hard on these
Great video! There're so many bánh mì types that even as a Vietnamese I haven't yet tried. Bánh mì phá lấu, bánh mì bơ bò nướng Campuchia (tried them in Cambodia and it's damn good), bánh mì nướng muối ớt, bánh mì nem khoai, etc.
Love your thorough analyses and commitment to quality content. Keep up the good work!
Thank you
always love your videos
Very high-quality content, as usual. Keep up your excellent work
Thank you so much
Moving to D7 in July and your videos are the best thing I've found for building a food map! Keep em coming!
Glad to hear it, more coming 👍
Hm, Interesting video. I like how you actually rating Banh Mi and Condense milk higher than my favorite one😅. I had to admit, this is a great video. People like you should get more attention from the internet. I'm looking forward to part 2👀
Love the editing! More content please! Hello from London UK.
Glad to hear it, we are working hard on it
I just happened to be visiting Vung Tau when this video popped up. I may check out these spots on my way back through HCM. Looks delicious, Thx!
I did side-eye you for the bo kho as you probably could have done a series for savory banh mi that is dipped (but then you'd have to do the same for the sweet ones that are dipped), but it makes sense to show the variety of how banh mis are eaten there. I thought when you did the pate one, you'd do the banh mi cay/que like made famous in Hai Phong. Definitely do a 12 part series showing all the banh mi as there's the egg one, the fried fish with dish (patties vs noodle shape, but maybe that's the same just in different form?), cold cuts, char sieu, roasted pork belly, lemongrass beef/chicken/pork. I love that last one you tried because it's so different. My dad made a version of char sieu pork belly that he douses in a caramelized onion and ketchup sauce and pickled carrots that is AMAZING! I wonder if that sauce she used is similar to my dad's ketchup sauce (I'm sure he was improvising when he made the sauce as ketchup isn't something Viets use).
Gawdamn, this video is def S tier. Good job Chad
😁, thank you
Banh mi has to be one of my favorite sandwiches otherwise it might be ranked 1st.
I love the combinations there are and the sauces they use.
I love Banh mi. I can eat it at any given day of the week.
Chad's Vietnamese has improved.....still need more practice to get fluent but a lot better then last year
Thank you, trying hard lately
u deserve more views broo quality production❤❤
Thank you so much
What a great series to start because I love banh mi, and I respect your opinions on Vietnamese food because of your background. I’m visiting Vietnam in a couple of months and can’t wait to try the real authentic banh mi over there. Over here in the US, there’s a lot in D tier and if you’re lucky you find one in a C tier.
I just got back. So nice there and cheap. The bahn mi around the corner from me here in North Carolina is $12 for the cheapest
@@user-zq3bl1ct3e $12 banh mi and not even in the same league as the ones in this video.
@@snake0911 exactly. You don’t realize the foods not as good until you actually go visit Vietnam.
fyi, generally, northern and central vietnamese never had a banh mi bi. i usually order it with extra meat (thit nac). great vid...thanks
It's 1 a.m. Bánh mì pate sound so good rn.
Always sounds good 😁
I was surprised that I didn't know half of the Banh Mi style in this tier list although I'm a Vietnamese.
You should try Haiphong Breadstick, or Banh Mi Que, it's a small breadstick filled with Haiphong Liver Paste or Pate Cot Den (which has softer texture and melts on your mouth). The key point of Banh Mi Que is Chi Truong, which is a really spicy chilly sauce usually stored in a small package (the one that hold canabis :)))). You should dip just the tip of the Banh Mi Que at first to get use to the spiciness of Chi Truong, then you can deeply dip it to enjoy.
Check out part 2, we had banh mi que and 6 other styles 😁👍
Chả cá means fish cake, Chad. I have tried some fish cakes that they sale at Asian markets in the US. The fish cakes in the US didn’t have much fish flavor like the fish cakes in Vietnam. I like food commented by chefs like the way you do. I like your contents very much.
I vividly remember the first time I ate a banh mi in Vietnam. I was in Phuc Quoc, it was morning. I went downstairs from my hotel room and went across the street to a little shop that had a glass display case of banh mi. It was a very unassuming shack with bare minimum setup. I didn't think much of it, had zero expectation of the food being good. I ordered your usual run of the mill typical banh mi with whatever meat they had. As a Vietnamese growing up in NYC, I've ate my fair share of banh mi thit. Between store bought and home made, I'm not stranger to the sandwich. But that banh mi from that unassuming glass display case..... HOLY SHYT IT WAS SO FUKN GOOD! I couldn't believe what I was eating. How can a banh mi from a small shack (with the same typical ingredients that I would get back in the states) taste this far superior to any banh mi I have eaten in the past? My mind was blown. It couldn't comprehend wtf was going on with my taste buds. Then I realized one of the major factor that sets Banh mi from Vietnam apart for the banh mi in the states, it was the bread. If you never had a banh mi in Vietnam before, you need to. One of the things that one needs to eat before one dies.
Flash forward two year later (oh you thought I was done telling my story) I came back to Vietnam with a college friend. We were in my hometown (Soc Trang). We left the one park in the center of the town (it's the one with the big pond in the middle with koi fish) and there was a banh mi stand. I decided to get 2 banh mi. My friend asked why because we just finished eating not too long ago. I told him to shut up and listen to me. We're going to get them for when we're back at the hotel. When we got back to the hotel, I went to take a shower. While I was showering I heard a scream from my friend. "HOLY SHYT THIS BANH MI IS MAD GOOD!". He then proceeded to snapchat everyone he knows back in the states about it.
Safe to say banh mi are good.
😂, I love how those certain food memories can be just so damn powerful
Very nice vid man, good camera work too, keep it up
Appreciate it
I hope you get your own show, Chad. Excellent work.
That would be so cool
Bánh mì bò kho and thịt nướng are my fav😋
Waiting for your part 2
At 4:40, I quite like the argumentation style like this, it makes me feel natural as at home but in the year 2000.
Excellent content. Please keep it up.
Thank you so much, we will
Try bánh mì heo quay, bánh mì vịt quay and bánh mì thịt. You gonna love them.
I was born in Vietnam but I don't know the location at the end of the video. Thank you for the introduction. I will try " bánh mì sườn sụn"
I feel like I’ve missed out in so many different kinds of banh mi. Awesome video.
Also, Mr. Chad my wife is a CZcamsr and would love to get in contact with your editor. Is there a possibility for her to get in touch with him? 😂😂
I am obsessed with shredded chicken banh mi!!!! I ate it for the whole 4 years when I was in college. The most delicious shredded chicken banh mi, in my opinion, is from a really small vendor cart next to Van Lang University, on Nguyen Khac Nhu Street in District 1. The chicken was stir-fried with onion and seasoned very well to my taste. I normally only take banh mi + pate + shredded chicken and fresh chili, with no cilantro or cucumber added. I don't know why, but the more I grow, the less cilantro, cucumber, or pickles I want to add to my banh mi. I just want to taste the original flavors of the banh mi. 🤗
Awesome thank you for the recommendation. Love shredded chicken vanh mi but haven’t tried that spot yet
I have never tried it, but it looks delicious.
waiting for part 2 Chad
in the early 90s we would eat banh mi dip with condense milk for breakfast and for dinner it was banh mi dipped with soy sauce , I never thought about it much growing up but I learned now that my parents tried their best , and im forever grateful
Yes, as a kid growing up in the 90s, I would eat it this way in the morning as well. Condensed milk sweetened mixed with hot water and banh mi to dip.
Wow, that is rough and beautiful. Those struggle meals can become something so important
I highly recommend the "Bánh Mì Xíu Mại" - banh mi and meatball with two ways to eat it, the dipping style or the traditional style, either is delicious and easy to find. Another recommendation is banh mi with dim sum inside - sounds kinda heavy but it has its own charm, this may be hard to find, and only a handful of places selling it. And since you enjoy grilled pork that much I think you will enjoy banh mi heo quay - roasted pork too
I saw bánh mì bánh bột lọc online but haven’t tried it yet. I’ll see if I can find a spot in Saigon for it
Try the "com tam PHUONG KHA" near lacasa apartment, its outside the building btw (in the morning only btw)
you have to visit Bánh Mì Hà Nội, it on Nguyen Thien Thuat Street, District 3 Ho Chi Minh City
Absolutely fantastic and stomach grumblingy delicious, Chad.
I can't wait for more.
How about the good old banh mi op là at 4 in the morning on the way home after a night out?🍻🍻
Factoring in the 4am, that’s S tier all day 😁
The “bơ” was a cross between a Mediterranean “mayonnaise à l'ail” and a Provençal-style “aïoli”- also known as "Le beurre de Provence,” in contrast to the traditional cow milk-based salted Beurre Bretel from Normandie. Beurre Bretel, Maggi, and La Vache Qui Rit trio formed the original flavour profile of the Vietnamese “bánh mì thịt,” with pâté and charcuteries. With the profuse addition of pickled vegetables, herbs and greens (“à la Saigonnaise”), the tangy and garlickly aïoli/mayonnaise à l'ail proved to be a better accompaniment. Finally, the word “bánh mì” was not a corrupted form of the French “pain de mie.” “Le pain de mie” denotes a rectangular loaf of soft bread referred to as “bánh mì sandwich” (i.e. to make British crustless ham and butter tea sandwiches).
yes. The name "Bánh mì" is a kind of "bánh" which is any kind of dish made with flour and have a defined form. "mì" is indicated that it is made from wheat flour.
Wow how do you know all this?
That's one hell of a ted talk.
@@NguyenMinh-mp2jxbánh bò có từ bánh nên theo m làm từ bột mì à 😂 phân tích ba cái chữ là xiaolin được ngay 🎉
@@kxnguyen3942ông dùng google dịch à ? Người ta ns "flour" là bột, khúc sau ns "wheat flour" ms là về bột mì. Nhục quá =))
Please visit Hanoi and try the classic Banh Mi Pate Trung Cha Ruoc. It is filled with hot pate, chicken egg fry, grilled fork, salted shredded meat (ruoc), butter, herbs, and pickles. The baguette is warm, crispy outside soft in the middle, not too hard, and easier to bite. For me, I like the richness in flavors more, and the combination also feels more rich, full and balanced.
It speak to the quality of the content when it just makes you wanna go to Vietnam and speak with the locals
Love yo hear that
My favorite savory banh mi is with pork crackling and the typical filling cucumber, pate, pickled vegetables etc. But for sweet, I dont know if this is considered sweet, but I grew up eating banh mi with laughing cow cheese spread inside with nothing else.
I haven’t had it with just laughing cow, but I know that is going to be delicious
Ôi bánh Mỳ. Bữa sáng khoái khẩu của tôi❤
_literally can't wait for S tier. Is there any Bánh Mì on S tier Chad?_
Yes ! Super tasty Vietnamese bread 🥖 🥖 “ bánh mì “ 🥖 🥖 😋 😋
I could watch banh mi videos all day!😂
More coming 😁
Amazing video ❤❤❤
Glad you liked it, thank you
My go to are the Banh Mi Heo Quay (Crispy pork belly) or depending on the vendor, the Banh Mi Dac Biet (Special Combo, usually various cold cuts). Can't wait to see where he'd rate these.
Definitely will show these soon
Where was the last place where you got the rib sandwich?
Bánh Mì chấm sữa should be S+ tier haha😂😂 the more you eat, the more u addicted to it 😂😂
egg dip is the Vietnamese version of Zabaione ( Italian custard )
Bánh Mì Bò Kho is SSS tier for me
Always need my Banh Mi with my Chicken Rice soup and mixed grill. can you please share the locations
Great video, helped me as a Saigonese with some unknown locations.
Some of the vietsub is incorrect though which might cause misunderstandings, for example when you said “this lady knows what’s up”.
Thank you for the heads up, we will work on the subs
you can try bánh mì Hà Nội, and bánh mì bơ đường, butter and sugar inside bánh mì, not bad :))
Chú thử ăn bánh mì nướng muối ớt đi ạ , béo với ngon cực.
I’m a Vietnamese and bánh mì rất là ngon 🤤
You should try "Bánh mì que Hải Phòng", which is a type of spicy banh mi originated in Hai Phong
That was actually the banh mi I thought he was going to get when he mentioned banh mi with pate. The Hai Phong version is famous and addicting from what I've seen from vloggers eating it.
I love it 👍
I heard many people describe it as "cr*ck in banh mi form"
i love bánh mì chả and trứng
my favourite is bánh mì xíu mại and bánh mì chảo, maybe for part 2 you can rank them
Definitely coming 2 of my favorites as well
Banh mi sua dac is the best. My kids and I also have it with sliced banana and the sua dac drizzled over the banana and eaten like a regular sandwich. A tier right there. I totally agree with you including the bo kho dipping banh mi. Bit tet in the north always includes banh mi for dipping and the meal wpuld be incomplete without it.
Bit tet, definitely coming soon. I’ll try it with the banana soon 👍
@@yeschefwithchadkubanoff I look forward to your Bit Tet video
*sua dac*:)
I firmly believe this video is just an excuse for Chad and his camera man to feast on all the Banh Mi they want
😂😂, honestly we were just trying to find a way to show off all the different styles…maybe to eat them as well 😁
@@yeschefwithchadkubanoff then you’re in the land of Banh Mi we dont have that much variety here in the North
Banh mi with pork BBQ and beef is the best
started my day at 77 cafe. average Banh Mi but at 7.30am was awesome in Tan Binh Q9 oh and strong coffee too
you tried much more banh mi than every other Vietnamese living in Sai Gon
😂, still more to try 👍
Hungry? Yes!!!
Hi - I like banh mi BBQ pork most.
Care to leave the addresses of the banh mi vendors you tried.. 😊 thanks
👍👍
Bánh mì heo quay in Saigon from a Chinese-Viet vendor 👏🏼 bm xíu mại and bm gà Nhan Ngai if you’re in Dàlạt
Hey Chad have you finished your Restaurant yet? Or is it still in the pipeline ? 😂 I want to experience it going forward Bro
Banh mi que is da best with me
anh có thể chấm bánh mì vào ly cà phê sữa. rất ngon đó ạ
I always love a fresh Bánh mì trứng for breakfast. Must have extra chilli
Perfect breakfast
Bánh mì kem, bánh mì thịt xiên, bánh mì trứng for part 2 please :D
Bánh mì thập cẩm best mà ko cho vào phần 1 😅
Your video editor deserves a doctors salary
With more followers and views, I can’t wait to pay him better then a doctors salary
Terrible idea watching this video without having food...now I'm so hungry 😅
😂
Hello Chad
Let's try Bánh mì Chim Chạy (running bird), is my favorite spot 🙏🏻
I’ll try it, thank you
If you want to know which dishes are delicious in HCM, ask max. 😊
Ghost banh mi 👍
Cá nhân mình đơn giản nhất là báng mỳ ốp-la kèm muối tiêu là ăn
I love getting bánh mì with bi and crisp roast pork!
So good
I see banh mi and I’ve got to click the video
Dont know that in HCM city,the price is pretty high
👍
Cadé bread is also very famous
