Baoguette: Great Vietnamese Sandwiches in Murray Hill, Possibly the Best Banh Mi in NYC
Just had the classic for lunch today. As others have said, the bread was excellent, with the perfect crispyness to it. However, the filling left a bit to be desired. It was very meaty tasting, which is a good thing, but was lacking the highly flavorful, sweet/spicy crispyness of a normal banh-mi. It just didn't taste like a banh-mi.
Overall, I'd give it a B, primarily because of the bread. It's good, and the meaty flavor is nice, but I'm looking for a banh mi, and it just didn't taste anything like it. Saigon is head-and-shoulders above Baoguette.
The other sandwiches looked nice, but I haven't tried any of them.

This is a great recipe. Note that it will require some additional salt, whether granulated or as soy sauce. That aside, excellent recipe.
