Besides the rich and flavorful meat fillling, a prominent advantage of the banh mi here is that it is baked hot and crispy, something that no other shop can do. Another feature is that this shops Vietnamese iced coffee makes me very satisfied. I will come back.

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.

Found this spot online and made my way to the compact Little Vietnam neighborhood along Avenue d'Ivry below the Tolbiac station in the 13th arrondissement. Watch for the broad burgundy awning and step inside. As you order one of a half dozen choices at the counter, you'll be asked if you want the sandwich "spicy" (not sure what that meant since I said no.) There's no seating at all so grab your sandwich wrapped in the (greasy) wax paper sleeve and be on your way. The bread was as wonderful as I'd hoped. The bauguette was lightly warmed and crisp to the bite and probably delicious on its own. The fillings, however, were just ol. There was no cilantro and no daikon radish so not sure if that's a French thing or just this place. The pickled carrots were very finely shredded (which I really liked) and the roast (red char siu) pork was lean but tasty. A great deal and a delicious meal!

From Yelp we found Pho13 with the reasonable prices and good reviews so we took Uber from our hotel near Eiffel Tower to district 13. The restaurant is well decorated with neon lights. It's on the second floor of a shopping center. The servers were extremely polite and attentive, we talked in Vietnamese which was nice. The servers here are quite friendly and open. The service was fast. We were amazed that the food here was so good, as good as in CA or better. The Egg rolls with rice paper were crispy and tasty like my mom would make them. My daughter loved them. My daughter ordered Bun Bo Hue and it was great, the broth is made just like at home but better, even the noodles and vegetables. My wife ordered Pho which she liked very much, as delicious as we cooked at home and we cooked extremely well LOL. And me, I ordered the bo luc lac (shaken beef) which extremely tasty and tender, better than many restaurants in CA. My daughter loves beef especially bo luc lac and salt, pepper, lemon dip. She practically ate most of my beef cubes LOL. They also have the baguettes with cold meats for us to take home for the next morning, we liked them, very good with lots of meat. It was nice to find a place like this, although we would come back here the next day for dinner, but we needed to try other restaurants around the area. Next time if we come to Paris, we will definitely visit this restaurant again. One thing about Restaurants in France is that TIP is not required, unlike CA.

If for some reason you need a summary of this place, it's an American fast food restaurant in the…read moreChinatown of the French capital. Surely, you're going to see some blending of cultures here. Even the display of the "McDonald's" sign here in Simplified Chinese characters is a testament to the mixing of languages that goes on at this restaurant. It surely is wonderful to see the effects of globalization taking place in one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world, but this McDonald's is decidedly French at the end of the day, and you'll see that in the language spoken here and even a bit in the food they serve. Thanks to a certain iconic scene from the movie "Pulp Fiction," I was compelled to see whether the names of some of the items are really as John Travolta said they are. The quarter-pounder with cheese is really not the "Royale with Cheese" but the "Royale Deluxe," known on the receipt simply as the "Deluxe." For 3,80€, this burger is surprisingly decent and exceeds the standard fare you get at fast food restaurants in the United States. It somehow tastes less fattening in France, and feels like more care went into making it. Ironic that the French should treat American food better than how the Americans themselves treat it. Yet the distinctive American flair to this food is notably absent. You would only know what that is by trying a quarter-pounder with cheese in America and then one of these in France. It's simply not there anymore. The ones in America have a richer taste, but I feel that the ones in France use ingredients of a higher quality. I could be completely crazy for all I know, but rather than directly copying the recipe over, it's almost as if the French McDonald's started building the idea for their own burger from scratch and imitated the American model piece by piece until they recreated their own version that bore a resemblance to the original but with notable differences. I'm not sure I can call one better than the other, but I do think that going to a McDonald's for an American is not as big of a waste of time in France as it might seem. I believe that chicken nuggets and fries are among the most popularly-ordered items at McDonald's, and those show up here as well of course. They're considerably less greasy than their American counterparts. I examined the cardboard boxes they came in and didn't see the oil stains that I've come to expect. The nuggets and fries also feel harder, but only on the outside. It's not that they're overcooked; au contraire, they show no signs of being burned and even taste a way that suggests they weren't made as carelessly as fast food is usually made. Other than that, deviation from the American model is minimal. Pretty good for what the French consider to be "la malbouffe," or "unhealthy food," I must say. When I came here another time, I got the Royal Bacon, also for 3,80€. As its name suggests, it is your usual cheeseburger with the beef patty, but also with some thin and soft slices of bacon. It's a saltier sandwich than the Royale Deluxe, as you might expect from a sandwich full of bacon. The admixture of bacon with pickles presented a taste that was a bit too strong for me, although I'm sure someone with more of an appreciation for bacon and pickles would like this sandwich more than I did. Two more quick general notes I'd like to make. First, fries with mayonnaise and ketchup taste a lot better than they do otherwise. Second, I wish I could have gotten a Big Mac here. If the menu is to be believed, it's 3,40€ and is just called "Big Mac," not "Le Big Mac."
