Just go to Oakland on international where Banh Mi Ba Le is. Theres also a specific way to make the loaf of baguette, some places make it too soft all the way through. You want it crispy and flakey on the outside, yet still retain a nice moisturized fluffy inside.

Yea thats where I grew up eating Banh Mi when I was a kid in funktown, that was the source my mom always bought from. Place was farther down international near that BK, but place got held up at gun point and robbed one too many times. So they moved down the street and now got fences all around their windows. Ghettofabulous flavor.

I have never and will never go to Lees for sandwhiches. Maybe the other pastries and etc they got on the counter, but you can get that in any other asian shop lol.
