Baoguette Cafe - St. Marks Place betw. 2nd and 3rd Ave.
$5.75
"Baoguette"

DELICIOUS! The sandwich that made me want to start this comparison.
-char siu pork = wonderful
-perfect meat:veggie ratio (possible a bit too bready but with a great baguette I won't complain)
-veggies not overly pickled (per David as he does not like pickled things but liked this just fine), very fresh
-surprisingly large, like I could eat this for dinner and save half to bring to work for lunch
-the bread! so crunchy and warm
-can pick your level of spice (sriracha and jalapenos), I got mild once and medium the next time
-terrine thinly sliced so as to just hint at its presence
To be continued
