The problem is banh mi is the new sandwich rage and you're seeing banh mi shop open up all over the place.
I just tried one today and it was the most flavorless banh mi I've ever eaten. Luckily, there was a tiny bottle of fish sauce on the table to add some much needed flavor.
There's more margin for error in banh mi, unlike sushi which really is fucked up in the states. Every tom, dick, and harriet thinks they can open up a sushi joint. They can, but most are really shitty! In Japan, it takes about three years just to learn how to make the gohan(rice).
I may to try another banh mi tomorrow to get a read on what a good one is...
