Lee’s Bakery, Buford Highway

I can’t say I’m too familiar with Banh Mi but I have heard talk about how awesome they are and I was interested in tasting one for myself. With not much going on and Google at my finger tips I was ready to find my way to Lee’s Bakery. I first walked in and didn’t know whether to sit down or stand in line. Everyone there had clearly been there before and knew what was up. I guess you can sit down and order but I came for the banh mi and I didn’t want to get distracted. I went to the counter ordered one grilled pork banh mi and within minutes I had what I had come for. The bread was light and sweet and the pork went great with spicy pickled toppings. It also only cost $3.20. How much better can you get?! Whether you’re a seasoned banh mi fan or new to Vietnamese food in general I would go to Lee’s to check this gem of a place out. And if you don’t take my word for it you can always check out the The New York Times review.
