About Bami Gara

Bami Gara is a Vietnamese food service establishment located on Richmond Row in downtown London, Ontario. Serving local students, downtown workers, and the Richmond Row community, the restaurant specializes in a menu centered around two primary items: bánh mì and Vietnamese-style fried chicken. The menu features a variety of bánh mì sandwiches made with crackly baguettes, house pâté, pickled vegetables, cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeño. Options include Grilled Pork, Roasted Pork Belly, Satay Beef, Satay Chicken, Satay Tofu, Fried Eggs, and BBQ Nem. For those seeking chicken, the shop offers various fried wings tossed in flavors such as fish-sauce garlic, honey sriracha, salted egg yolk, and lemon pepper. Other offerings include fresh rice-paper rolls, rice and noodle boxes, popcorn chicken, and a full beverage bar featuring milk tea, fruit tea, and Vietnamese coffee. Established in 2024, the business is uniquely named as a portmanteau of its two main dishes: bánh mì and gà rán (fried chicken). The owners describe the name as a "portmanteau you can eat," highlighting their focus on these specific culinary specialties. Customers can dine in at the Richmond Row location or opt for pickup and delivery via Uber Eats and DoorDash. The restaurant also offers a call-ahead ordering option.
