Num Pang Sandwich Shop started out as a food truck parked by NYU in Manhattan. Now they have 6 locations around the city and these Cambodian Sandwiches rock big time. They are real deal people and cheap! I got the top seller, Pulled Pork. Go and get it!

If you like Vietnamese food and you are in Salt Lake City, hit up Oh Mai. There are two locations and their Pho and Bahn Mi sandwiches are real deal. My son turned me onto this place when he was living their because he is a Pho junkie. Pictured is the Spicy Beef Short Rib Bahn […]
