NoHo newbie Willa’s Provisions is hosting a pop up with the Miami-eatery Benh Mi from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturday-Sunday, Aug. 14-15.

“Benh Mi” sandwiches—stuffed with Willa’s roasted chicken or Benh Mi’s char siu mushrooms—are on the pop-up menu, plus a crunchy tender chicken bucket, vegetable spring rolls, street fries and green papaya salad. Drink specials include an ube (purple yam) latte and a boozy Saigon Sunrise pouch.

Willa’s Provisions, a coffee shop and cafe at 310 N Rome Ave., opened in April about a month after its older sibling the French-American family-friendly Willa’s.
