Banh Mi Near Central Park, Packed for Picnics
Order lemongrass pork banh mi near Central Park from a tiny Columbus Avenue counter built for pickup.
🥖 Lemongrass Pork Banh Mi
A banh mi near Central Park starts at Saiguette, a tiny Vietnamese counter on Columbus Avenue in Manhattan. The lemongrass pork shoulder sandwich leads, built with tender meat, pickled vegetables, sauce, and a softer bread than the classic crusty loaf.
Pho and hearty entrees fill out the menu for anyone who wants a bowl instead. There is no dining room here, and the whole operation runs on online ordering, pickup, and delivery. Weekday lunch discounts keep the prices remarkably fair for Manhattan.
The counter stays open daily until half past eight PM, which covers a midday sandwich, an early dinner, or a pickup on the way to the park. Carry the bag toward the green, find a bench, and let the savory pork, bright pickles, and sauce do the rest of the work.
