My propensity for porcine pursuits put me on the scent of @banhmistable, where they make the most delightfully crispy heo quay(Chinese-style crispy pork) banh mi.

The ultra-thin layers of crackling shatter effortlessly with each bite, followed by the silky mouthfeel of the fatty meat. To cut through the richness, there’s plenty of crunchy and tangy Vietnamese-style pickled vegetables. It’s all held together by freshly baked baguette, which is the perfect vehicle for the fillings – crusty on the outside but not overly so that it gets in the way of the ingredients, and narrow enough to take whole bites of easily.
