Awesome job putting both this sandwich and your entry together.
I've never heard of this sandwich before and am delighted to learn about it. Just did a quick search and (no surprise) thank goodness there are plenty of Bahn Mi sandwich shops in Toronto!
I figured it was corn bread however initially I also thought it could have been some kind of egg bread or a sauce that you soak the bread in prior.
Very cool that you've put your own spin on this lovely sandwich. And the Sriracha-Mayo Sauce looks epic!
Very much looking forward to to trying one of these. I'll report back when I do lol
hehehe that's a blessing that you have so many choices in Toronto!! Did you get to try a Bahn Mi yet? =DD
I just made another round of Fried Egg Bahn Mi for myself and my sis-in-law using fresh soft white sandwich bread (the corn bread is attractively yellow, but I find the softer, almost non-existent bread texture to be the best accompaniment for all the other textures inside the 'wich)...soo yummy..I'm addicted to this combo..it's so worth the mess of the pickled carrots falling out of the sandwich when I chomp into it!! loll
The Sriracha-Mayo sauce is a new fad for me. Well, it's fortunate, since I did buy a huge bottle of sriracha chilli just to make this sandwich hoho
Not just yet, haven't had an opportunity to go out for one. I'm looking forward to that day or night though!
Ya i can see how a thinner bread would work well with this combo.
Hey @jaybird - If you are okay with fusion Banh Mi, I recommend Banh Mi Boys, they are at Queen and Spadina as well as Yonge and Gerrard. But if you want to check out an authentic spot, try Banh Mi Nguyen Huong on Spadina.
Right on thank for the suggestions. Came across both of those places on my search. I'm sure they're both pretty good. Prolly test out authentic first.
