Ha! Exactly. Report back once you try these places and let me know what you think.

Spot on. Those thick slices of “meat” (pre-Upton Sinclair definition) that street vendors use are one of the reasons I eat fewer ban mi or nom pang style sandwiches in Phnom Penh than I did growing up in San Francisco.

On the other hand, those sandwiches in your pictures look really good, so I’m going to have to put “Banh Mi & Bros” and “Nömpang” on my list of restaurants to visit.

Thanks Lina.
