Báhn Mì Vietnamien (Lausanne, Switzerland)

Chem. des Pêcheurs 7, 1007 Lausanne, Switzerland

 

Báhn Mì Vietnamien is a hole-in-wall that is kind of hidden on the outside of a larger restaurant at the lakefront in Lausanne. It is a small Vietnamese restaurant with a decent sized terrace with view of the harbor and lake. It serves a limited selection of the usual staples, sandwiches (Bahn Mi), soups (Pho), etc.

 

I get Nem (CHF 12 or ~$12.30) and a Bahn Mi Chicken (CHF 13 or ~$13.30) as well as a drink (CHF 5 or ~$5.15). The Nem (crunchy small spring rolls) are pretty good. The Bahn Mi comes on a long, thin regular baguette. It has pulled chicken on it but very little vegetables, which means that it lacks the fresh flavor.

 

VERDICT: 84/100

Quite steep price, although it is at a prime location in Lausanne, this is an acceptable but not remarkable Bahn Mi.
