Vietnamese baguette sandwich with pate, grilled pork or roast chicken, pickled daikon and carrot, cilantro and jalapeno. The Stockton Boulevard corridor's defining lunch.
Vietnamese refugees who settled along Stockton Boulevard in Sacramento after 1975 brought the Saigon-style banh mi sandwich with them, and by the 1990s the corridor between Florin and 65th was lined with banh mi counters baking the rice-flour French baguette daily and stacking it with pate, grilled pork, pickled vegetables and Vietnamese coleslaw. The Stockton Boulevard banh mi is heavier on the pate and cilantro than the LA or Houston versions, and it travels with the corridor's pho counters as a complete Vietnamese lunch under $10. The corridor remains the Vietnamese commercial center of the Sacramento Valley, with Pho Bac Hoa Viet, Pho Saigon and the SF Supermarket bakery counters running the city's banh mi supply.
