We love the tangy, finely-shaved pickles that crown the banh mi at this modern Ravenswood spot, not to mention the schmear of pâté that lends most of its meat-centric offerings a rich boost. The sautéed shrimp sandwich is a winner for its mix of plump, sweet shrimp and umami-packed soy onions, while the thinly sliced, faintly smoky meat, velvety mayo, and lip-tingling jalapeno in the grilled pork version strike a great flavor balance.
