Co Hai Banh Mi & Pho

Co Hai Banh Mi & Pho is famous for its banh mi, the traditional Vietnamese baguette sandwich. Run by Vietnamese owners and chefs, you can be sure you’re getting an authentic taste.

While the menu offers many different Vietnamese dishes, including pho, their banh mi sandwiches are in a league of their own. The restaurant has two locations that are nearby each other.

Highlights:

The baguette (banh mi) is freshly made on the premises: Not only does Co Hai make fresh banh mi for their own restaurant, but they also supply them to other Vietnamese restaurants in Singapore. The experience of biting into a warm, crusty on the outside but airy on the inside banh mi is truly amazing.
Banh mi comes in 10 options: Roasted Pork & Pate Baguette, Pork Hams & Pate Baguette, Stir-fried Beef & Cheese Baguette, Stir Egg & Cheese Baguette, and Mix Vegetables Baguette (vegan) just to name a few. Also available in their banh mi list is the Beef Stew & Baguette with the beef stew served in a bowl and the baguette on the side to be dipped in the soup while enjoying.
Reasonable pricing with generous portions: Whether you order a banh mi, pho, or vermicelli, you’ll get a big portion with a generous amount of meat and filling. The meals are great value for money, given the generous quantity and high quality.

MENU: As the restaurant’s name suggests, they specialize in banh mi and pho. There are 10 meat options for the banh mi. The signature Co Hai Baguette includes BBQ roasted pork, ham, and pork floss with pickles. The noodle soup menu offers more than 20 choices, which cover a wide variety of noodle styles ranging from North to South Vietnam.

Besides the banh mi and pho, there are plenty of starters, the Kampong Chicken, and refreshing drinks on the menu.
