There are nooo Bahn Mi places in Markham :( Ever since It's a Bao Time closed, I have been searching long and hard. This place comes close to what I am looking for, but not quite there.
(Food:)
BAHN MI HEO is their pork belly sandwich and although a little heavy tasting, it's not a bahd sandwich (get it?) I have definitely had better with bulgogi filling, but it definitely satisfied my craving.
The CHA GIO spring rolls were also a little heavy. I think the problem is how they deep-fry the rolls, since I've been to other vietnamese places and the shell is definitely lighter. I was also disappointed to know that there's no vegetarian option for the spring rolls (It would taste just as good, and save the environment!)
(Price:)
BAHN MI HEO: $6.5
CHA GIO (3): $6.5
I find the prices to be really cheap! I couldn't even finish everything in one sitting!
(Ambience:)
I like the ambience a lot! I feel like my review is a lot higher because of the vibe I get from being there!
(Comparable:)
The spring rolls at Pho Tai Bac are better (less oily and vegetarian.)
(Overall:)
I know my review is quite harsh for 4 stars, but I still definitely enjoyed my meal here. Aside from it being a bit heavy, the price was good, the ambience was good and the service was fine!
