Week 41: Banh Mi
The Banh Mi sandwich is really the only good argument for colonialism. Calvin Trillin As a vegan it’s hard to find sandwiches in shops. Take away the meat, cheese, dairy and egg, and there’s little leftover to create a filling sandwich. My partner introduced me to one of his favorite sandwiches–the Banh Mi. We couldn’tContinue reading “Week 41: Banh Mi”
