Disagree with the idea that more expensive banh mis are necessarily worse, and this is kinda my point-- other sandwiches are allowed to experiment with more expensive ingredients (or alternatively claim cost of labor, but that's another thing), but if you do something similar with a banh mi then people object.I see your point, but there ARE a ton of expensive banh mis, moreso than cheap ones. So they are allowed to experiment just the same. It's just sad when you're surrounded by $15 banh mis and can't get a real one. The 2 best ones I've had were a $4 super classic one, and a $12 one from a local shop. But I've had so many meh expensive ones made by non-Viet people. Tacos took a super long time to get "permission" to be more premium though, and they still struggle with it (see: birria). --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance ...
