Special Banh Mi (with chicken, pork and meatloaf) at Wild Pho, 1006 Massachusetts St.

One of Vietnam’s favorite street foods has immigrated to Lawrence: the banh mi sandwich. Wild Pho’s take on banh mi includes a baguette-like crusty roll (mini-history lesson: colonization was the impetus for this nifty French-Asian combination) stuffed with meat, shredded carrots, cilantro and the restaurant’s creamy-spicy special sauce. Choose from pork, beef, chicken, Vietnamese meatloaf, tofu or the special sandwich: chicken, pork AND meatloaf.
