Subtly located in the Ton That Dam street market (District 1, Ho Chi Minh City), a store is making people surprise at launching special kinds of banh-mi for nearly 100 USD / pc.
Banh-mi is familiar for Vietnamese people, especially Saigon people. The average price is only 10 – 30 thousand dong depending on the type, meeting all criteria of delicious, complementary, cheap and convenient. But giving up 100 USD, equivalent to more than 2.2 million, for a loaf of banh-mi, not everyone easily nods and very rarely any bakery dares to sell such things.

But this super expensive banh-mi has just appeared in HCMC. Located just a small corner, hidden behind the market on Ton That Dam street, a restaurant has just introduced banh-mi of up to 100 USD / pc. Immediately it became one of the most expensive dishes in the world (according to the channel Best ever food review show on Youtube).
Explaining this expensive price, the restaurant manager said bread is cheap but the inside of this banh-mi is not cheap at all. The filling of 100 USD banh-mi is a combination of fatty foie gras (foie gras) and grilled pork ribs.
Phục vụ từ 2-3 người
Mỗi chiếc bánh mì, nhà hàng dùng khoảng 4 miếng gan ngỗng, mỗi miếng khoảng 40 gram. Gan ngỗng được áp chảo cho mỡ chảy ra, sau đó đầu bếp sẽ rưới phần nước mỡ lên toàn bộ bánh mì vào khâu cuối. Sườn heo nướng là phần nguyên liệu chính của bánh mì. Sườn heo được đựng trong túi chân không, nấu ở nhiệt độ thấp trong 6 giờ nên thịt sườn rất mềm mà vẫn giữ được hương vị nguyên sơ. Each banh-mi and restaurant uses about 4 pieces of foie gras, about 40 grams each. Foie gras are sautéed for fat to melt, then the chef will sprinkle the grease on the whole banh-mi at the end. Grilled pork ribs are the main ingredient of banh-mi. The pork ribs are contained in a vacuum bag, cooked at low temperatures for 6 hours so the ribs are very soft and still retain the original flavor.
Cilantro, basil, mint, sliced cucumber and carrot slices … are placed on top to harmonize the cake. Contributing to the price of $ 100 / loaf of banh-mi is the “appearance”; of sturgeon caviar, fried sweet potatoes and free champagne depending on the number of customers.
