If you’re on the hunt for the best bahmi in Paris, look no further. This spot is an absolute gem, and their fried chicken bahmi is a masterpiece. As their signature dish, it lives up to the hype and then some.
What sets their bahmi apart is the choice of chicken thigh over the more common chicken breast. This small but significant decision makes all the difference. The chicken is incredibly juicy and packed with flavor, a far cry from the dryness you often find with breast meat. The texture and taste elevate the entire dish to another level.
As someone who loves a good kick of spice, I was thoroughly impressed. The seasoning was bold and flavorful, striking the perfect balance without being overwhelming. Each bite was a burst of spice and savory goodness that kept me coming back for more.
The service was another highlight. The staff were polite, welcoming, and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. It’s clear they take pride in not only their food but also in creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
In all honesty, this was the best bahmi I’ve ever had. Whether you’re a local or just visiting Paris, this is a must-try spot for an...
Read moreI ordered delivery, the order was prepared in a very reasonable amount of time. The ingredients are fresh and fairly plentiful. I ordered two different half banh mi’s- Demi jabon beurre & the VFC (Vietnamese fried chicken). I enjoyed the Jabon beurre the most- packed with different types of meat including pork floss which I’ve never tried before, there’s also something inside that gave it a kinda sweet and kinda cheesy taste which was nice. There’s some sort of pâté on this sandwich too. I found some of the meats to have too much fat on them so I removed prior to eating, which took away quite a bit of the product. My first time trying Banh mi in Europe and I’ll definitely say it’s pretty authentic. There’s an option to add red chili which was nice.
The friend chicken banh mi was underwhelming. Don’t taste much of the fried chicken, it’s fairly unpronounced, especially between all the baguette bread. Can’t complain though! It was a great value for just 10/11 euros for both sandwiches. The baguette bread was tasty, fresh and crunchy. I’d definitely return, hopefully for a sit down...
Read moreAmazing food! I had the VFC banh mi and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was tender on the inside and crunchy on the outside, vegetables were very fresh, sauces very flavorful, and the baguette soft and crispy. I specifically asked for no cilantro and they were accomodating since they make everything on the spot. They also had some interesting donut flavors to try - I had the kaya, which was really nice, but I wish I'd tried something more exciting. Service was reasonably fast, I only had to wait about 5-10 minutes, but they were very kind and polite. The seating area is outside and a bit small, so it might get crowded when it's busy. A bit off the beaten path if you don't live or work in the area, but if you're ever at Republique and don't mind a 15 minute walk,...
