Soooo, Nikko introduced me to this show called "The Great Food Truck Race" where one of the teams was a group of Vietnamese 20-somethings that had started a food truck (NomNoms) centered around Banh Mi, an amazing Vietnamese sandwich. I had no idea what a Banh Mi was before this, so I did some research and the more I read, the more I wanted to try one. Thankfully, about 2miles from where I live is a high traffic area that is ripe with Pho restaurants and Vietnamese sandwich spots. I had no idea about the sandwich places until I did a Yelp search for Banh Mi in the area. After some reading, I chose Sandwich Express as our very first sandwich shop, as the reviews all praised the homemade french bread. Here's what we got...
Clockwise from Top Left: Pork&Ham, Shredded Chicken, BBQ Pork
It was amazing, no lie. The baguette was perfect, crunchy on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. The veggies gave the perfect amount of crunch and heat to compliment the filling.
I will definitely be going here to continue my Banh Mi education.
OMG me and my friend steve were just talking about this show and truck earlier today! he said it was mm mm bomb haha
