| - Finally! A restaurant in Phoenix that serves my ideal banh mi! Technically its not a Vietnamese sandwich, but it does taste a lot like one. In the search for a wholesome banh mi, I've gone to about 6 Phoenix Vietnamese restaurants in the past year and have been disappointed in their banh mi's every time. Either the bread wasn't fresh enough, there was too little meat or there wasn't enough asian mayo, none were good enough for my liking. Today, I decided to try Sekong's Noumpang Saiko Ang, which is a grilled beef Cambodian sandwich. This sandwich was fabulous! The bread was just the right amount of crispy outside/soft center, the beef was tasty and tender, and the best part, enough mayo that has been so lacking in my previous endeavors. I would say the only thing missing is fresh jalapenos, which I am sure they would add if I request it. Now that this heavenly sandwich has touch my lips, my only hope is that the fresh ingredients remain consistent. I also want to come back and taste their beef noodle soup that looks a lot like pho too.
For the people that have not been here before, this place is not easy to find. I drove here with a GPS and still passed it. Its right next to the auto place, so if you see that you are very close.
