K2P Délices Bakery — Restaurant in Orlando

I'm the first to review! Maybe because this gem is a little hard to find. It's on the backside of the plaza, not facing the road, but facing 1st Oriental Supermarket. I wasn't sure what they had at 0800 to eat and my husband is VERY American, so I was a little (a lot) scared.

My husband wanted coffee and he likes hot coffee, but they only had iced. I looked at him for approval, and surprisingly, he said "sure". I got an Iced Latte, a Pate Chaud and per the little Vietnamese lady's recommendation, Banh Mi Thit Nuong (Grilled Pork Sandwich). I wasn't sure if this white boy was down for a sandwich for breakfast, but, AGAIN, he obliged. Everything was delicious and FRESH! I was pleasantly surprised by the Pate Chaud. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was amazing. The flaky pastry crumbled and melted in my mouth at the same time. I had to take a second bite immediately to get the pate taste. My husband said I should have gotten another one, especially since it was only $1!!!! Well, he went back for FIVE more.

We NEVER come on this side of town and I was so excited that he wanted to browse. I would definitely return to this hot spot...just not...

Pros: Bread and all the materials inside the sandwiches are made in-house. These are best when it's fresh, and they are always making them fresh whenever you go. I've been at various times of the day and my sandwiches have always been warm and crispy. If you do not eat it immediately, I recommend keeping the veggies separate so the bread doesn't get soggy. If you eat it later, try to toast it in the toaster oven before eating and you won't regret it. My boyfriend is Vietnamese and he's brought me to multiple shops around town, but this place is our go-to.

Cons: A lot of the staff have poor English. Occasionally, they have a person up front who has good English. I don't have any complaints as a non-Vietnamese-speaking individual, although I know some people have concerns about it. It's not a problem if you know what to order. They are friendly people, especially the young lady...

K2P has one of the best banh mi (Vietnamese baguette) around central Florida. They make their bread fresh and they have good Vietnamese iced coffee as well (their coffee is like crack, very addicting). My favorite banh mi from them is the BBQ meat but I switch to special combination (cold hams & meat) sometimes. Their BBQ banh mi is really good.

PRO - Baguette is crispy and good, friendly staff members, great iced coffee, and they sell other store made specialty. CON - Their special combo banh mi is salty sometimes and if your order is under $10 you would not able to...
