Many people these days equate Vietnamese food with Pho, the delicious beef noodle soup that seems to be everywhere around Puget Sound, but the Bahn Mi sandwich has become just as popular.
iSandwiches, a new place that sprung last November along the Aurora corridor, has taken the concept and run it to perfection. Owner Tai proudly states that each order is cooked fresh and it shows in the quality.

One of the most important aspects of these is the bread. Crunchy, flaky french bread is essential for all the other elements to come together, and iSandwiches brings it in fresh daily from the owner's bakery in Seatac. The combination of hot peppers, cilantro, onions and carrots amongst the grilled pork makes for the perfect lunch, although I could actually eat this anytime of day.
There are many sandwiches to choose from: tofu, ham, meatball, a couple types of pork and chicken, along with a BBQ sausage that sounds intriguing.
Next time I will have to try their specialty, Bahn Mi Thit Nuong, the Curry Chicken with Onion Sandwich. They also offer noodle dishes, lovely looking pastries, and a variety of classic appetizers such as spring rolls, chicken wings, fried tofu, "Shredder Pork" and Fried Butterfly Shrimp.
