At the market, I couldn't resist ordering a crispy bánh xèo filled with slivers of fatty pork, shrimp, diced green onion, and bean sprouts.

For the office party, Maya ordered six bánh mìs, each packed with cilantro, pickled carrots, and spicy pâté.

At the street market, we tried several varieties of bánh xèos filled with shrimp and bean sprouts.

On my way to work, I grabbed a bánh mì stuffed with roast pork, cilantro, and pickled vegetables for breakfast.
