# Banh Mi-Themed Menus Starbird is Serving Up a New Banh Mi Lineup for a Limited Time By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2024-01-14 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banh-mi-lineup References: [qsrmagazine](https://www.qsrmagazine.com/news/starbird-rolls-out-banh-mi-lineup-for-limited-time/)  Starbird is taking its famous crispy chicken and putting a Vietnamese twist on it with the launch of its new Banh Mi Lineup. A Banh Mi is a classic Vietnamese dish that consists of a fresh baguette split lengthwise and filled with ingredients like pickled vegetables, pâté, herbs and spices, and meats like Vietnamese ham, steamed pork roll, or other proteins. Starbird has taken this signature dish and remixed it in five different formats, to give consumers multiple different ways to try the savory, spicy, and tangy combo of flavors. Highlights from the new Banh Mi Lineup include the classic Banh Mi Sandwich made with Starbird's crispy chicken, the Banh Mi Salad served over a romaine cabbage blend, the Loaded Banh Mi Fries featuring a Hoisin & Sriracha Aioli drizzle, and more. Starbird's entire Banh Mi Lineup is available now for a limited time.
