Bánh Mī 135 (Duluth, GA)

Bánh Mi 135 is a rather new Vietnamese sandwich shop in a shopping mall in Duluth, just north of Atlanta. It has a very limited menu, namely Bahn Mi, i.e. Vietnamese sandwiches, with pork, chicken, egg, and vegetables. All sandwiches are $5. The place itself is very new and has limited seating.

I get a Grilled Pork and a Shredded Chicken bahn mi. Both come on rather large, light, crunchy, and fresh sandwiches. The grilled pork is warm, tender and flavorful, although it has a bit of an aftertaste (cannot really identify the specific flavor). The shredded chicken has a bit of a curry flavor and is also tender. Both come with the usual vegetable condiments, which are exceptionally fresh (the cilantro has a particular great flavor).

 

 

VERDICT: 92/100

Bahn Mi 135 serves some of the best Vietnamese sandwiches I have ever had. It's the type of place I love: doing one thing and doing it really well.
