'''THE''' Sandwich place at 980 Clinton avenue is one of those places. It's streetfront screams Vietnamese video store, yet in the back of a small store there is a little counter that immediately reminded me of my time in south east asia. Could this be the real deal? - - Vietnamese sandwiches are an elegant construction built upon french colonial baking skills that are without par. It's all in the bread baby and this is damn fine bread. Crusty rolls with a delicate baguette crumb make a perfect foil for the interior complex layers of flavor that build from butter, through an authentic vietnamese pate spread to the deli-meats, pickled vegetables, and garnishes. - - If you don't like mystery meat you are not worthy. Go home. We're talking pate here and that means innards whose provenance you just don't know. There are gelatinous slices of meat to be tasted. Textures you might not know well. Shut your eyes and chew. Don't waste perfectly good thoughts on silly cultural preferences - they are beneath you. Just moan softly as the butter hits the savory pate on the tongue. Groan as the meat yields it's textural component and the pickled carrot cuts through the richness that threatens to overwhelm you.

Get there early - they do sell out. Don't eat mine or I will hunt you down.
