Bà Lan Bread in Đà Nẵng: 3 layers of pâté, it only tastes right when eaten there

Bánh mì Bà Lan is the most famous bánh mì in Đà Nẵng — located at the corner of Trần Phú and Ông Ích Khiêm streets, operating since 1979. The bánh mì here is different from other places because it has three layers of pâté: pork liver pâté, pork fat pâté, and roasted pâté — each offering its own distinct flavor.

A full sandwich for 25,000 VND includes: hot, crispy toasted baguette, 3 layers of pâté, thinly sliced Vietnamese pork sausage, crispy roasted pork, pickled carrots, sawtooth coriander, chili paste, and homemade chili sauce. The first bite crunches with the crispy crust, then the rich pâté flavor, savory roasted pork, and finally the sweet-and-sour pickled vegetables and spicy chili.

Don't get it to go — eat it right there on the plastic stools on the sidewalk in front of the shop. That's because banh mi has to be eaten while the bread is still crispy; leave it for 10 minutes and it turns half soggy. Come before 8:00 a.m. or after 3:00 p.m. to avoid the long line.
