banh minh - vietnamese bread roll stuffed with char siu pork, home made pater and mayonaise, pickled carrots, radish [sometimes], cucumber, spring onions, coriander and optional cut red chillis, seasoned with soy sauce, fish sauce and salt and pepper
the sandwich of dreams :o)
i am soo addicted to these sandwiches its crazy
while we were in sydney [ i know i keep talking about sydney - im 6 months behind!]
we ate one of these bad boys every single day [sometimes 2 if we could manage it]
they were sold everywhere, especially in a vietnamese brakeries
made fresh on the sport to order
my taste buds started to jump for joy every time we passed one of these little shops and we had had HAD to stop at every one to buy one
they came in all sorts of flavours [unlike perth, where it is a standard pork, pate & mayo etc]
grilled chicken, beef, char siu pork, roast pork,
beef ball, grilled pork... sausage.. and more! OMG!
and at most places selling from $3.00 to $5.00 max...
an absolite bargain if you ask me
how many places can you get a decent lunch for under $5
anyways coming back to perth was a real downer when it came to banh minh
no one makes it fresh to order - sydney style
there are a few places that do sell these rolls, but its always pre made hours in advance
so its not the same...until...
a little birdy told me that a super deli place in west perth sold them
fresh and made to order!
its not the same the ones in sydney, but its pretty damn close
they did offer a number of different flavours but you have to get them during the lunch hours.
$5.50 each, not the cheapest but i aint complaining
a little piece of heaven.... i could eat this for lunch every day...mmmm
