Tomorrow from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Michael Schulson’s pan-Asian restaurant Sampan (124 S. 13th St.) will launch weekday lunch hours by giving away a free pork belly bánh mì, complete with soda and chips, to anyone who sits down at one of their 24 bar seats. Those feeling “in funds” should eye up the five other sandwiches on the menu, a sort of bastard brood of bánh mì all stuffed into crispy Ba Le Bakery Vietnamese baguettes. Noodle bowls (including ramen), shrimp pad thai and salads all make appearances on the daylight menu; prices top out at $9.
Hit the jump for the complete lunch menu.

This is nonsense. There’s a meatball banh mi on here, but no tofu? That’s just a black eye on the city.
Make it lemongrass.
