The Sandwich List...Installment #4

- Banh Mi, Vietnamese Submarine Sandwiches, Pho 777, North York, Ontario, Canada

A recent discovery when Alex and Grace brought down a whole mess (mess is defined as, more than two, less than ten) of these sandwiches:


Banh Mi are the seemingly unlikely, yet exceedingly successful melding of French (baguette, homemade mayonnaise, pate) and Vietnamese (cilantro, roasted/preserved/rotisserie meats, pickled vegetables) flavors.

Even better, these sandwiches are an amazing value, setting you back only $2.00 to $3.00 each. So they’re an inexpensive meal OR you can buy up a mess and have a full blown tasting extravaganza. Who doesn’t love a good old fashioned extravaganza?

These sandwiches are indeed transcendent, but VERY aromatic. So beware overnight storage in the refrigerator, best to eat them, all of them, all of them for me and none for you, I'll never share, keep you're grubby hands of off my Banh Mi! Sorry, I get selfish around Banh Mi.

Thanks again to Grace and Alex for scoring, sharing these treasures and sending along the photo of amazing goodness. I'm not worthy!

Just giving you guys a heads up, we’ll be back in the GTA in June and I have an extravaganza in mind! Buy 10 get one free! Oh yeah!
