BONMi has opened its second location in New York City, this time on 23rd Street, according to a press release. The concept, which draws inspiration from Viatnamese street cooking, was named No. 8 on Fast Casual's 2016 Top 100 Movers and Shakers. According to the release, the concept's specialty is the banh mi sandwich.
"Like many people before us who have developed new variations on the bánh mì, our approach is to take the sandwich's core components and give them a looser framework," Brand Director Alexis Kukuka said in the release. "By doing so, we are allowing our customers to use their creativity to nudge it in a direction that most excites their palates and taste preferences."
This concept's first New York City unit opened in 2015 on Manhattan's upper west side.
