Sauces

I'll give that a try next week.

There's a damn good Banh place out that way but west a little more. Can't remember if it's on Bangerter or 5600 W. But it's around 21st S iirc. Damn good sandwiches and the price is good. I think mine was only $5. I was going to order two because I thought they'd be small for that price but the portion size was good, not overly stuffing but enough.

If you haven't tried Vietnamese sandwiches go there. You won't be disappointed. I'd eat there 4x a week if I could walk to it.

Found it, Hot Banh on 56th West, out by your work. I had the garlic rib eye for $5.29.

Added bonus: the lady running the counter was smoking hot for a 50-something y.o. Tig ol bitties that she was proud of too.

I have a hard time with Banh Mi. The Pâté that is used is really fishy and I can't get past the smell or taste. Maybe the place you are talking about is different but not sure it is worth paying for a sandwich and not getting past the first bite.

Bet you don’t like hookers either.

I had to look up what that is. I don't think they add it. It's not listed in the ingredients in sandwiches on their menu, not in pictures, and I didn't taste anything fishy.

I looked at Oh Mai's menu too, I hear they have good eats. Only the top sandwich lists pate as an ingredient.
 
If it's the same thing I'm thinking of, that place no longer exists. South side of 45th South, right next to the east side of I-15? If so, that place was torn down for yet another Maverik.

Yep. Seriously they had the best sandwich i ever had (and i had it a million times from there). A part of me died when they tore that place down. I was legit depressed about it.
Thier was never a sandwich as good as their pastrami before that place and there never will be.

Shaved hot pastrami meat (the best patrami ever), pickle relish, mustard, fresh crisp diced onions (never had better onions anywhere else) cheddar cheese, mayo, lettuce. Very good bread.
Best sandwich of all time, imo of course.

Now im ****ing pissed cause i can never have that sandwich again.

I tried most of the sandwiches from that place and most of them were pretty average (pepper steak, turkey, blt, beef dip, even the crab sandwich) but that pastrami was literally the best thing i could ever eat outside of a ruths chris ribeye and some great king crab legs.

I've never had pate on a banh mi. If you're talking about fish sauce, well learn to love it. Fish sauce is delicious.

This mostly confuses me but i will try if i get a chance.

Pate is a main component of banh mi. If your banh mi is lacking pate you are not eating banh mi.

A bánh mì sandwich typically consists of one or more meats, accompanying vegetables, and condiments. Common fillings include steamed, pan-roasted or oven-roasted seasoned pork belly, Vietnamese sausage, grilled pork, grilled pork patties, spreadable pork liver pâté, pork floss, grilled chicken, chicken floss, canned sardines in tomato sauce, soft pork meatballs in tomato sauce (xíu mại), head cheese, mock duck, and tofu. Accompanying vegetables typically include fresh cucumber slices, cilantro (leaves of the coriander plant) and pickled carrots and white radishes in shredded form (đồ chua). Common condiments include spicy chili sauce, sliced chilis, Maggi seasoning sauce, and mayonnaise.

You are eating the Americanized version....

That was one of a dozen options listed. I've had a few of the other options. But I'm sure I'd love the pate as well, as I've eaten pate in other forms many times and liked it. But pate can take on many forms, I think it really just means meat turned into a sort of paste.
 
I love sauce. Almost all sauce. Soy sauce, hot sauce, fry sauce, BBQ, wirchestershire, honey mustard, ranch, ketchup, mayo, mustard, Georgia gold ;) and on and on. Basically any sauce. I even like to mix em

Strangely enough, maybe the best sauce of them all his found in a cheap as banquet brand TV dinner called backyard BBQ meal. The sauce on the ribs is the bomb.

That looks disgusting.

It's only 99 cents.


98 more than I'd pay.
 
Dont you guys have delis or hoagie places out there where you can get a legit half sub at maybe a $1 more than Subway? One that has legit cold cuts and bread? Or get a whole for like $7-11 and eat a half a day.
No but we got Jersey Mike's, Gandolfos, Fire House Subs, a local joint called Moochies which is amazing and some hipster places right down town which are all way better than Subway. Place smells like stinky feet.

Also a place called Bud's downtown which serves Vegan sanwiches. I'm not vegan in the slightest but they use jack fruit in this BBQ sauce and it tastes just like pork. Their barbacoa samwhich is really good.

Try fat boy Phillies. It's fantastic. Probably my favorite Philly. Make sure to get their sauce and put it on.

We do have a few decent sandwich places and a couple okay delis, but this isn't the east coast. Chains dominate for the most part.

I haven't been completely blown away by Jersey Mike's, mostly because their staff has been brain dead teenagers who can't hardly make a sandwich the way you ask for it. If they used what they had better and moved at regular human speed I'd probably like them a lot more.

Kneaders (I think it's a local chain) makes good sandwiches but they don't have deli meat and they are pricey. If they made an italian sandwich I'd be there a lot more.

Jimmy Johns is okay, but yeah, national chain that makes pretty meh sandwiches. These guys won't put more than five pepper slices on your sandwich no matter how much you beg.

I now work within a 3min walk of a local deli chain, Knickerbockers. They are pretty damn good. But there's only a couple of them in the valley. The location I go to is pretty much slammed from open to close with both in-store customers and catering. I think they do a dozen large catering orders every lunch. So the staff is 100% on point, getting **** done.

I know there's some legit delis downtown. I can't remember the name but there's a good German deli. But again, this is Salt Lake, not New Jersey or NYC, not even L.A. or Chicago. Good places have a hard time here competing with large national chains because the majority of people here want the homogenized version of a good deli sandwich, and people in Utah are cheap AF, so you give them half the quality for 80% of the price and they are all over it. Hard for a good deli to compete.
Siegfried's deli is great.

Try a different Jimmy John's location. Ours here will customize it as you want it. Love JJ as far as chain sandwich places go. Easily my favorite BBQ potato chips anywhere.
