Saigon Banh Mi & Pan - Bánh Mì Chảo

"The first time I came to Saigon and heard "pan bread", I immediately told my friend to take me to try it. The result was "pop", indescribably delicious", excited Mai Thuy (born 1992) shared.

Pan bread is a special breakfast dish of Saigon people, meeting the "standard" criteria, delicious, cheap and nutritious. When it comes to Saigon, bread is no longer a strange food, but pan bread is truly an "elevated" dish that makes many diners fascinated. Crispy bread is displayed in a hot pan, with fragrant meatballs, fatty cheese, salty fish, and Pate to balance the flavors. Thus, cuisines from Asia to Europe can converge in pan bread, making anyone who tries it once will be ecstatic.

Mai Thuy shared on Saigon Eatery about her experience with pan bread on Calmette Street (District 1): "A mixed dish has quite a lot of toppings such as: shumai, fried rice, canned fish, cheese, pate Cartilage patties and comes with pickles and cucumbers to make it less greasy.

One special thing is that here we use crispy, fragrant cartilage rolls. I see very few places that use these rolls. The patties are cut thickly, not thinly, the meatballs are extremely soft and flavorful, and the pate is light and fatty. If eaten with bread, the sauce will be a bit bland, you should spray it with soy sauce and chili sauce to make it richer." In the morning in Saigon, if you are not in a hurry to get to work, you can enjoy fragrant pan bread, full of sweet, fatty, salty flavors, full of nutrition to start a new day.
