PrintHanco's Park Slope Lowers Banh Mi Price to $6.50
Yesterday, a sign was posted on the windows of less-than-a-month-old Hanco's in Park Slope: "Effective today, all sandwiches are $6.50."
Originally, they were $7 but said too many people were complaining. "We want to say here, so we needed to listen to our customers." The sister branch in Boreum Hill still sells what seems to be the same sandwiches for $5.25.
Then there's Ba Xuyen in Borough Park, where no banh mi is over $4. How much would you spend for the Vietnamese sandwich?

$3.50 at Pho Bang in Flushing. In good old days, it used to be $2.50. I asked the owner how many he sell in a day. About 500.

Let me step out on a limb here and say that the sandwiches are worth $6.50.
I had a sardine banh mi and a tofu banh mi during the first week Hanco was open in PS and both were chock full of quality, fresh ingredients. In this era of a $4 slice, $6.50 banh mis on Seventh Ave. in Park Slope, where rents are nearly as high as on the LES, are fairly priced.
