Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich Review: Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich and sand castles

On 369 Broome St in Manhattan lives the real deal Banh Mi (as far as Manhattan is concerned). The Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich shop is ready to stand up tell all the pretenders to shut up.

One of the main thing that sticks out on the menu of Sichuan dishes is the appetizer that's just called Taiwanese sausages. You pretty much never see that at a Szechuan/Sichuan restaurant menu in New York. It comes fairly straight forward, just cut up into slices. Some sliced garlic accompany the meaty appetizer. Even thought it might seem weird to eat sliced garlic with sausage, it works well here. The sausage is slightly sweet and not too fatty, so it was quite nice.
