The classic Vietnamese banh mi might just be the world’s best sandwich. We think you’ll agree when you try Chef Adriana’s version. It’s got everything you need to build yours DIY style: rich slabs of unctuously tender, lemongrass-marinated pork belly; pickled daikon and carrots for tangy, briny crunch; cool cucumber for a different kind of crispness; sliced jalapeño for heat; herbal cilantro for distinctive flavor; savory Kewpie mayonnaise for creaminess; and a crusty baguette to hold everything together.

About Adriana Herrera

chef image

Chef Adriana Herrera's first culinary experience was butchering live catfish in her father’s pescadería at the age of 14. It wasn’t love at first butchering, but it did spark an awakening of self and a passion for food. Classically trained in French cuisine, Chef Adriana began her career at the Four Seasons in Chicago and later worked under Eric Ripert in Miami. Her main culinary inspirations come from three epic places: Chicago, Miami, and the sea. Chef Adriana focuses on global vegetarian dishes, seafood, classic cuisine, and New American fare. She believes that everything is better when it’s whisked together. Let’s eat!
