Labubu Milk Tea ???

📍Paris Banh Mi – Doraville

I went for the Labubu

⭐️ Labubu – Huge shoutout to the manager who’s clearly been putting in work on this one! They utilized Vietnamese jello recipe and added a coconut twist. Tastes fun, but mine took a tumble into my milk tea and made a mess 🥲

⭐️ Banh Mi – The bread was super crispy—loved that! Packed with meat and flavorful, though it leans more fusion than authentic. A bit pricey…

⭐️ Canned Cake – $8 a pop… not bad in taste, but probably a one-time try at that price.

Doraville

... Read moreMy recent visit to Paris Banh Mi in Doraville was quite an adventure for my taste buds, and I'm excited to share all the delicious (and not-so-delicious) details! Finding a good spot for authentic Vietnamese flavors can sometimes be a hunt, so I hope my experience helps you decide what to try on your next visit. First up, the star of the show for many, the Banh Mi. I opted for a Classic Combination Banh Mi, and my initial impression was how incredibly crunchy the Vietnamese bread was – a definite highlight. They actually offer three different breads to choose from, which is a fantastic touch, allowing you to customize your experience. The meat filling was generous and had a really good flavor, though I'd agree with the original post that it leans a bit more "fusion" than strictly traditional. While it was tasty, and I'd give it a solid 8/10, I've had banh mis that hit that perfect authentic note a bit closer. Still, for a quick, satisfying bite in Doraville, it's definitely a strong contender, even if it feels a little pricey for a sandwich. Then there was the intriguing Labubu Milk Tea. This was something I hadn't encountered before! The description mentioned it was like Vietnamese jello with a coconut flavor, and it certainly delivered. The very light coconut flavor was refreshing, and the jello added a fun, unique texture to the drink. Despite a minor mishap where mine took a tumble (oops!), it tasted great, and I'd rate it a 9/10 for its novelty and deliciousness. Definitely worth trying if you're looking for something beyond your usual bubble tea. Beyond the main attractions, I also sampled a few other items. The Canned Cake caught my eye, priced at $8. It wasn't overly sweet, which I appreciated, and the flavor was decent, earning it an 8/10. However, for that price point, it felt more like a one-time novelty rather than a must-have repeat order. "Never get this again" really sums up the value proposition for me. We also tried a Tornado Potatoe, and unfortunately, we made the mistake of letting it sit too long. By the time we got to it, it wasn't crunchy anymore, and the breading felt a little thick with "no flavor." I'd give it a 7/10, but I think it needs to be eaten immediately to truly appreciate it. My friend also grabbed a croissant, which looked appealing but I didn't get to try. Overall, Paris Banh Mi Doraville offers a diverse menu with some definite hits and a few misses. If you're in the area and craving a well-made banh mi with crispy bread, or curious about the unique Labubu Milk Tea, it's worth a stop. Just be mindful of the prices, as they can add up, and make sure to eat certain items, like the tornado potato, fresh! It’s a fun spot to explore new flavors, especially if you're open to a modern twist on Vietnamese classics.
