Beef sandwich among the best in the world?
Travel + Leisure magazine’s list of Best Sandwiches in the world ranges from humble, Vietnamese street foods like the banh mi, to a $100 sammy from Japan stuffed with hand-massaged Wagyu beef on slices of crustless white bread.
Travel + Leisure magazine’s list of Best Sandwiches in the world ranges from humble, Vietnamese street foods like the banh mi, to a $100 sammy from Japan stuffed with hand-massaged Wagyu beef on slices of crustless white bread.
The list, compiled by food celebrities like Anthony Bourdain, domestic doyenne Martha Stewart and actor Mike Myers, spans the world and is a tribute to regional specialties like the croque- monsieur -- the French version of a grilled cheese sandwich -- and lobster rolls from Massachusetts.
Chef and food personality Mario Batali’s contribution to the list is a sandwich filled with squid in its own ink and aioli from Madrid, while Stewart named a ham and cheese baguette from a New York bakery as her favorite.
And while the Wagyu sandwich rings in at a hefty $100 USD (€76), Bourdain’s pick of a fully loaded banh mi sandwich complete with a fried egg from a Vietnamese street stall, was a humble 50 cents.
Meanwhile, National Geographic’s Intelligent Travel also compiled a list of sandwiches around the world, which included a Japanese roll filled with yakisoba noodles and English butty stuffed silly with fries.
