Rich, traditional Vietnamese banh mi built around house-style pork pate with classic pickled vegetables and herbs.
The Pâté Sub (Banh Mi Pate) at Saigon Deli is for guests who love a deeper, richer banh mi profile. House-style pork pate is layered generously into a freshly baked baguette, building that distinctive umami foundation that traditional Vietnamese banh mi is known for.
We finish each Pâté Sub with house-pickled carrots and daikon, fresh cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeño, balancing the richness with bright, tangy, herby notes. It's a quietly popular order from regulars who appreciate a more classic Vietnamese deli profile in Calgary SE.

"Closest thing to home cooking I've found in Calgary. The baguettes have that perfect soft-yet-crisp bite and the pickled veg is bright and fresh."
