    Khai Tri is now part of my banh mi rotation. Their sandwiches are in a different class than the…read moreother banh mi shops in the Chinese Quarter, but just as enjoyable. Friendly service. When asked if you want peppers, get 'em! They're little bombs of delight. Pack cash, they've got a credit card minimum that's probably hard to hit if you're only buying one sandwich. Like to read? Khai Tri is also a bookstore. (At a glance it seemed that their merchandise was all in Vietnamese.) This is a tiny ass shop, so expect to take your books and/or sandwiches to go.

    So I came back. On a Sunday, I was craving Bahn Mi, and I was heading to Thieng Heng when I passed…read moreby Khai Tri and noticed that there wasno line. So I walked in and asked for a House Special spicy and got it really quickly. Upon first bite, I realized that that the baguette is not as crunchy as the other places: They don't use Baguette Traditional, which I'm totally cool with as those things cut my mouth. I also noticed that they add Chinese dry shredded pork (rou song), weird. The next bite I got to the meat slices and pate, which relieved me a little, and then I noticed the very small amount of carrots and cilantro. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I don't like it when they add too much of that stuff (like hoa nam), but i dont think i like it when they don't add enough. Not enough is better than too much though. Upon my fourth or fifth bite, I finally tasted the spice...but also their sauce..it seems like they in addition to mayo and maggi, they also add chinese sauces in the sandwich, which was also weird. So, all in all, it is definitely not the vietnamese sandwiches that I am used to eating. I can see why someone would like the novelty factors, but I just don't. I do like their bread but everything else is not to my taste. I can officially write this one off my list.
