Bánh Mi Cali

Ask around for the best bánh mì in Orlando, and lots of folks will send you here (including us). This simple shop nails every aspect of a bánh mì: The still-warm baguette crackles when you grip it and the meat-to-herb-to-vegetable ratios are all perfectly calibrated. They have five sandwich options, and our favorites are the marinated-to-sweet-perfection grilled pork and the special combination with ham, pork, and pate (the best choice if you’re really hungry). There’s a small counter to sit on a stool and eat, but this is more of a takeout spot. So consider eating your sandwiches while exploring the options in this huge strip mall, like Sun Pearl Bakery, an excellent cash-only Chinese bakery.
