VIETNAMESE SANDWICHES
Have you ever heard about “Banh mi”, pronounce Bang Mi, a type of Vietnamese
sandwiches that you might try when in Vietnam? There are Vietnamese restaurant all
over the world but they hardly offer this kind of Vietnamese Sandwich, well, if you ever
tried it then you might be a lucky one, but “no”, don’t worry, prepare yourself and be
ready to travel to Vietnam to discover both beauty and the food culture together.
Banh mi first appeared in the 60s when the French arrived and brought one of their
common dishes to Vietnam, Vietnamese who are very creative changed it to the unique
rustic dishes branded Vietnam. And just a few years ago, when the tours brought
international ravelers to explore Vietnam culture, not only the professional chefs but
also most casual travelers were attracted by the taste of the banh mi which is
increasingly better known in the eyes of foreign tourists. In the 2015, Huffington Post
magazine ranked Vietnamese banh mi as the top of the 20 best street foods in the world.
More specifically, banh mi has different characteristics at every area in Vietnam. Come
on, let's travel to Vietnam and experience this wonderful delicacy together.
Hanoi – the first destination
Hanoi: Vietnam’s capital with more than a thousand years of history is one of the oldest
cultural hubs in Vietnam. Besides “pho” ( the noodle soup), banh mi is also unique. No
matter where you travel to Vietnam, you might try Banh mi almost at any corners
whether in big or in smaller town.
Banh mi praised as the “the best in the world” by David York Farley, The BBC
commendatory. The banh mi here includes deli-style pork, pate and veggies (carrots,
cilantro, cucumber, etc), stuffed into a soft and crunchy French baguette. According to
his description, the loaf is not too complicated; “ many things in here have a function:
the pork floss soaks up the sauce, the pate adds moisture and the fact that the baguette
is lightly toasted keeps it from getting soggy in this immense humidity.” Geoffrey Deetz
– a chef and Vietnamese food expert who’s been living in the country for nearly 15 years.
David York insisted: "What kind of pork and fresh herbs are stuffed in crispy loaf is the
most wonderful sandwich".
Hoi An - the peaceful city to visit when traveling to Vietnam
Banh mi Hoi An is the first result you see when you search "The best banh mi in
Vietnam" on Google. This dish captivates two well-known chefs, Anthony Bourdain
(USA) and Cameron Stach (Canada). After enjoying, A Banh Mi Deluxe’, is how Anthony
Bourdain’s friend described his scrumptious baguette. A loaf of bread includes pork thin
grill slices, pork bologna or sausage, greasy liver pate, special sauce and basil vegetables,

coriander, pickles and hoisin sauce, the common spices in Saigon. Lemongrass scented
