The only non-Asian breakfast I’m truly passionate about is a ham and cheese quiche
This American grocery quiche I got was made with oil instead of butter. So it didn’t taste as good as a proper quiche.
But at least it was a quiche. I think most American food can be improved with much more butter.
I go to a French place for Parisian sandwiches in SF coz it’s the only place that will give me a sandwich with a two inch slab of butter as the lord intended.
I deeply disagree with the dietary fatphobia and preference for sugar here
@skinnylatte In my opinion it’s not even a sandwich if it doesn’t have butter (or, at a pinch, margarine). The first time I had a dry, nasty American “sandwich-like food object” I went back to complain and they looked at me like I had 2 heads.
@pmonks I’ve had a lot of objection to butter in sandwiches which I truly do not understand.
I also don’t really want to eat a sandwich the size of my head, so I guess I should start thinking about American sandwiches as a different type of food
@skinnylatte 100%. Like a “ham sandwich” should be bread, butter, and ham, not an entire deli case of other meats and cheeses, topped off with an entire salad bar!!
@pmonks hahaha perfect description
It drives me crazy too when people say only saigon sandwich is a legit good banh mi in the tenderloin. It’s fine but I think most Americans like it because it is 4x larger than it should be. If you’re ever in the area, Bo&Beurre has an excellent smaller banh mi with top shelf quality ingredients.
@skinnylatte We’ve been enjoying Tanglad banh mi recently, and they’re very reasonably sized (i.e. normal).
@pmonks tanglad is pretty good for the Castro hehe. One of the few decent places to eat other than Tacos el Tucan
