Individually-Wrapped and Platters of Banh Mi Vietnamese Sandwiches Catering

Bread, pickled vegetables, mayonnaise and meat - the banh mi is made of humble ingredients but it has a history as rich as the whole of Vietnam. After the defeat of their French colonizers in 1954, the Vietnamese would put their own spin on the ingredients introduced to them by the Europeans. Mayonnaise and vegetables replaced the butter and meats popularized by the French and the Vietnamese were able to make the banh mi a food for the everyman rather than the ruling class. After the fall of Saigon in 1975, the Vietnamese spread throughout the world with many landing in the United States bringing their food traditions with them. Quickly food carts and restaurants began to pop up as Vietnamese communities grew in cities like San Diego and Houston. And even now the ingredients remain the same - bread, pickled vegetables, mayonnaise and meat.

Can I make my order gluten-free?

Unfortunately, it's unlikely that any Vietnamese restaurant is offering banh mi sandwiches with gluten-free bread so it is unlikely that your gluten-free team member will be able to partake unless an alternative such as a rice or salad bowl is offered. Look for the (GF) indicator next to a dish to know if it is gluten-free.
