Bánh Mì vs Marketing Kyiv
A great Subway alternative
Well, here it goes. Bánh mì vs Marketing offers great Vietnamese sandwiches or Pho Bo soup. If you ask me, is all about sandwiches, no matter if you want a quick bite or if you're as hungry as a dinosaur. This hidden spot is located in the courtyard - you need to go to the basement of the building. There isn't so much space inside, just enough for single customers or small groups of 2-3 people to sit. What I always think about such places is that they are about the food and taste rather than the atmosphere or the long talks with friends.
The ingredients are always fresh and the bread is made by them. I highly recommend trying the Cold Cuts sandwich - their classic - and only then start experimenting with alternatives. They also serve rice, salads, and the Pho Bo soup, so there are a couple of options available.
It is a great place for lunch if you are in that district and feel hungry. All the staff is very helpful and always happy to help. I believe they often see two types of clients: regular customers or the ones who find about this place either through their friends or the internet.
