THE VERY IDEA OF BON BANH MI WAS HATCHED AT MY KITCHEN TABLE ONE SUMMER SATURDAY AFTERNOON IN 2010. JEREMY SPENCER AND MYSELF (JASON SAKRAN) WERE ASKING THE AGE-OLD QUESTION, "WHAT DO YOU WANNA EAT?" WE WERE BOTH HUNGRY AND CRAVING SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN CHARLESTON'S REGULAR OFFERINGS. I HAD JUST MOVED BACK TO CHARLESTON FROM WASHINGTON DC WHERE SOUTHEAST ASIAN FOOD WAS SOMETHING I COULD GET FREQUENTLY. AFTER A QUICK RESTAURANT SEARCH, NOTHING SOUNDED GOOD, SO WE DECIDED TO TAKE A QUICK TRIP TO HL ASIAN MARKET AND THREE HOURS LATER, THE FIVE SPICE PORK BANH MI SANDWICH WAS BORN.
