Brooklyn Ave NE near NE 41st St
8/10 on my bangin' scale
It's a rare feat when the price of a sandwich goes up 100% over six years and I still think it's a crazy good deal. At $4 (add $0.75 with a fried egg), the BBQ pork banh mi at Saigon Deli is the best I've had.
The BBQ pork is flavorful. Not that sad, flavorless BBQ pork that some places in the area use. The roll is always warm and crispy. Top it off with fresh cilantro, cucumbers, carrots, jalapenos, and mayo, and you've got a winner of a sandwich.
With a lot of banh mi competitors in the U-District/Roosevelt area, it can be tempting to try something else... but, me, I don't want no mediocre.
