I have a new love and it's the Banh Mi Dac Biet, a French inspired Vietnamese sandwich of ham or turkey, pate, cucumbers, thinly sliced carrots, onions and radish maybe, daikon, I'm not sure, cilantro some very strong chilis all on a flaky French roll that will leave you covered in crumbs if you're not careful. I can't get enough of them. There are a few little Vietnamese cafes in Oakland's Chinatown (just across the water from Alameda and about 5 minutes from my new place) that churn them out for $2.50 a pop and they are unbelievably delicious. I love them so much, I even bought a loaf of their pate so I could make something similar at home. The combination of the tangy pate, the simmering chilis, the crunchy vegetables, fresh cilantro and the fresh bread is just so perfect. Ok, so it's not kosher, and I don't care if I'm going to hell (mostly since I don't believe in it), but I'm going to be eating dac biet for the rest of my days.
