Bomb Mi

Adam at our bus stop, breakfast in hand.

Lately Adam has been on a Vietnamese sandwich kick.  Called Banh Mi, the typical breakfast is some form of pate -- usually chicken -- served on a fresh baguette with a fried egg, pickled veggies, fatty-chewy-mainly-gross-pressed-pork, cucumber, cilantro, and soya sauce.  You can special order to eliminate said pork product and add some "Baby Bell" spreadable cheese.  It really is a delicious start to any day and for the cost of 11,000 VND (about 50 cents, American) you can't do much better for a hearty start to your day.

Heidi is starting to believe in the power of BOMB mi more, though she has to convince herself that the non-de script pate is really a plate of refried beans.  She also enjoys the fact that, just like the movie Newsies, her banh mi is wrapped in newsprint and tied up in a little to-go bag.  Who could resist that marketing?
