#banhmi
Banh mi stems from the French occupation of Vietnam, the French baguette, butter, chicken liver pate. Then the Vietnamese pork, coriander leaves, picked carrots, chills, cucumber and soy sauce.... Old school fusion cooking at its best...!
As a young vietnamese man, this makes me happy to see this
It's not a good week without watching a Grego video.
Hey Greg, I found out that these Bahn Mi shops actually make their own whipped mayo butter and pates! And yes, the 'soy sauce' is indeed Maggi liquid seasoning! I make my own mini Bahn Mi using those mini bake at home rolls in Coles or Woolies 😁
yummoo!
They’re $6 in Springvale, Melbourne but that’s because it’s a Vietnamese suburb with lots of competition
Also in Victoria Street. That's my pre-game meal before the footy. I've missed that!
I live in Springvale the best Vietnamese rolls.
Which is $6 for crispy pork generally 7-10$
They were $4.50 before covid which is crazy to think of it. Haircuts were $10 now $15 My fav is Tabac Bakery. The daughters who serve are cute too which helps.
@@bennybaubles which ones mate? Name of the shop....
First bite....."thats a mouthful".....where's that little voice saying "that's what she said"? 😂😂😂 Good to see ya. It made my day.
the voice was in your head :)
@@GregsKitchen AhOh! You've been listening? Now I am worried. 😳
Also it's mayo and butter
Whipped mayo and butter specifically!
Hey Greg, it is indeed Pate. Also in Adelaide the going rate for one of these is $6-7. You can find these at street vendors everywhere in Vietnam for less than $2. The most popular version is the cold sliced meat combination with pate, chilli and all the salads, raw onion is a must. It is so good. The pork crackling version has been popularised here in Australia more than in Vietnam, but if you can find a shop that sells the cold meat combo give it a try Greggo!
Its abit pricey but the value of stuff you get in the pork roll is amazing. Plus i enjoyed their viet coffee with it. Pairs well together
$7:50 here, $11 is a bit steep, bakeries are cheaper than cafe"s....but they do taste better than plain Aussie salad rolls
Mate. You're spot on re price although it did look meaty. My golden rule with Bahn Mi is that it has to be from a joint that bakes their own bread otherwise forget it. By the way there's nothing wrong with with a salad roll from a country bakery especially if it has sliced beetroot in it.
Ugh those ugly smoko shop ham n salad rolls🤢
Almost 4 days without my Grego fix, I started to get the shakes, took a RAT test and was positive saying I love the man 😌
He was cooking for Novaxx Djokovic while he was quarantined.
Wow! Funniest comment I've ever seen!!
That’s Gold 👍
My favourite feast at the minute. Good to see ya laughing gear tucking in Grego
id take a banh mi over anything
@@GregsKitchen Good Man!!!
Thanks GregO. Now I'm going to my kitchen to make bread. You made me hungry.
Greggo will you visit Macca’s for the new Aussie Angus burger?
i've done a review on it already, should i do another one?
$11??? Thing's really are expensive in queensland. They're $6 where I live and that's including crispy pork. And the bakery has a 4.9 star rating.
I almost shit me pants when he said $11. Get 2 of those beauty’s where I live for $11
Love that beer in ur display picture red horse
@@brandocebu yeah I drink a lot of it when I go to the Philippines. Pretty strong beer.
@@Yeahnah89001 me too can buy here in oz now but taste different.
$4.50 in a Vietnamese suburb in Brisbane...
That's the most expensive bahn mi I've seen in Brisbane. I hope it's really good! People said that the bedt bahn mi in Brisbane is the one at the front of Darra train station. It's less than 6 dollars each
I've had bahn mee in sunshine west victoria from around $8 and it was worth every cent
Yeah I was surprised to see that it was 13.50 . In footscray Vic it's around 5-6 dollars
$11.00!!!!!!!! Thats daylight robbery.
Onya Grego ! Another epic review mate
Looks like a bit of cucumber in there also and that light tasting pate was probably pate mixed with real butter
There's pate and a whipped mayo butter that kinda melts with the vegetable moisture. Also soy sauce or Maggi liquid seasoning on top!
Really good video Greg! Enjoy your enthusiasm and the way you unpack the elements of the food. Making me really jealous
Hey Greg, if you want to try an authentic Vietnamese Bahn Mi I would highly recommend the Banh Mi Factory in Zillmere. Most lunch times around 12:30pm there is lines out the door onto the footpath. They also have an excellent $12 meal deal.
That's about the only thing going for Zillmere - town's absolute haven for deadsh*ts in general!
Those prices on the board at the start of your video, Grego 😳
Almost fell off my chair.
When the buttery mayo and pate and soy hit the carrot and the soggy end of the roll it opens up the door to narnia for me ❤❤
Can't wait to get back to Australia and try some of this great food Greg is trying out. I miss my many years at Alice Springs.
Banh Mi sandwiches are $5 in Canada. It's a standardized price matching system, lol. Usually you get a Pho soup to go with it.
At current exchange rates
$5 Canadian is $90 US .
$90 US is enough to settle Australia's national debt .
So $5 Canadian dollars adds up pretty quickly when your comparing to a third world country
@@shannongerbes what are you talkiong about? $5 Canadian is like $3.50 US.
Vietnamese do make the best bread rolls i concur. They picked up the trade during the French colonial period.
Thought is was from the chinese
@@pipilongstocking4382 No the Chinese are not traditional bread makers. Another little bit of trivia which may surprise many is that Vietnam is the second biggest producer of coffee in the world. Again the history of coffee in Vietnam has a French influence the Vietnamese having been traditionally tea drinkers.
@@westnblu 👍
@@pipilongstocking4382 I'm guessing you had no clue about the French occupied Vietnam? They literally called it 'French Indochina'.
@@lmaree200886 Didn't know but you learn something everyday!
Apparently this one of the few shops where the chefs, cooks, servers, and virgins haven't smashed out the back door when someone said GregO sent them! ....
Had my first Banh Mi back in 96 wagging school. Gotta tell ya, nothing beats the ones I had back in the old days.
Do you think nostalgia had something to with it or the Banh Mi's genuinely better "back in the old days."
@@ClipVerseU Probably the drugs
Haha the most cultured Greg has ever been.
I've said it for a lot of years: Bahn Mi, or "Bum Knee" as the neon yobbos in my area call them; is the great unifier of cultures. It could be the $5 bakery deal or a mid to upscale version like this: They always hit you juuuuuust right...
Used to cost $3.50 at Springvale from the Vietnamese bakery.Now it's gourmet Aussie food.$11.00. That's capitalism Grego..
It's just $7 in Springvale, Victoria. Bun bun's (near ANZ on Springvale road) is the best i have tried. Long queu at lunch time and weekends.
$7 Bun Bun sunday breakfast perfect hang over cure !!!!
Darra station Bahn Mi Greggo! I'd like to see you rate it, best I ever had. $5 last time I went there, 2 years back. $3.50 4 years ago. Could be $7 by now. That one looks good too.
Scotts Rd deli Darra is the best by a mile.
Once at a Chinese Restaurant we were served Dinner Roll Buns, we all had a good laugh. Watching this video is only the second time I've seen Asian food with bread.
Banh MI often come with pate, that's what it probably is, maybe it's weak because of all the other flavors
Some places are average and some places really make authentic pate.
They always have whipped mayo butter and a pate
Normally its optional extra and they ask you and you have no idea what it is so you say no because theres other customers and u dont want to take forever, it's probably viet mayo, one of the 100 variations
@@danielwho4859 The lighter spread was whipped mayo and butter, darker spread pate 😁
@@danielwho4859 I've never seen it as an optional extra 🤔
The best things about Bahn Mi’s is their fresh bread rolls and how much fresh flavours they have.
Been eating them for about 26 years from 3 different shops and they are all similar-
- Twice the ingredients that this one has, for almost half the price.
The bread roll is fresh because they typically are sold from Vietnamese bakeries, who bake the rolls that morning.
The pate stuff should definitely be pate- it’s one of the Bahn Mi ingredients. I think theirs may be home made as it’s chunkier.
It just didn’t have lettuce, shallots or onion which most seem to have for $6.50.
I think $11 for half the ingredients is more like a 3/5 score.
Hey Grego you’re such an awesome bloke mate, I just have to say, See you in The Northern Territory you bloody legend!!!!
Big congrats on 300K subs GregO !!!!
Go figure, an Asian restaurant in a strip mall next to a "rub and tug". Only thing missing is the Taekwondo place and a donut shop. Funny that even in other countries, nothing changes.
$11 tell em their dreamin
My hometown sells it for $5
Love ya work Greggo!
Considering how many asian woman greg dates it's amazing that he's a banh mi amateur.
yes, greg certainly likes eating asian.
Can you show us how to make this? Id love to be able to make this at home, thanks Greg !!!
You really don't need a video. If you know how to make a sandwich this one is super easy to make (I make mini ones) but a fair few ingredients are needed and veges need to be prepped first.
*large crusty bread rolls or a French style baguette
* butter
*mayonnaise
*pate spread of choice (liver, chicken, pork etc)
*soy sauce or Maggi liquid seasoning
*meats of choice (shredded chicken, roast pork, roast beef etc. Make at home or buy premade in store)
*shredded carrot (I like to do this the day before then put it into a salted, sugared and vinegared brine overnight for an easy pickle)
*chopped veges of choice (shredded lettuce and white onion, tomato slices, cucumber strips, coriander/cilantro and chive/green onion stalks) Other varients also add pickled cabbage and white raddish
*chopped fresh chillis optional
* salt and pepper
The only hardest thing to do (if you've bought precooked meats) is to whip the mayo and butter together but you can use a hand mixer. Spread pate on one side of the inside of the roll, spread whipped butter on the other side then layer all the ingredients. Top with a few drops of the soy sauce/Maggi seasoning, salt and pepper
😋
@@lmaree200886 ok thanks for that will give it a go, cheers
@@AussieRic Awesome! Reply back when you do, let me know what you think of it! 😁
Compared to a foot long sub, seems to have more filling and actually fresh properly cooked meat as opposed to the processed and nuked garbage. Haven't had one in years - last time was at Aerodrome Rd in Cabo using the typical sliced pork roll.
I have been to Brisbane, but only briefly (I did go to the XXXX brewery). Makes me wish I was in suburbia!
I swear sometimes watching Aussie stuff is like a different language
I'm in New Zealand 🇳🇿 and I think I pretty much speak Australian! There are a good few differences between our countries. But when I'm in the States it feels like I'm hearing another language !
Well it is in fact. Non Aussies should try watching the non American dubbed version of the original Mad Max film, you’d probably understand less than half of it
Oh my you are a classic.....have you gone around Sydney burbs at all?
Good to see you captured the fly flying around with the spring rolls haha
The brown stuff is pate. Sometimes they like to mix the pate with mayo or a little something to make it lighter and easier to spread.
Also, dayum that's so expensive for a banh mi. I'm in Cali and have never been to Australia, but is banh mi usually that expensive there?
In Melbourne (where I am) they're typically around $8 AUD, which is $5.75 USD. Brisbane is pretty bad for banh mi overall, both quality and price-wise. They don't have the proper Vietnamese hot bread bakeries.
You can buy a roast pork banh mi for NZD$13,90 here in New Zealand (US$9.40) so its about right. I've always thought we were severely ripped off when it comes to food. The Carl's Jr western bacon cheeseburger is around NZ$16 here.
Ahhhh ok so I learned from you guys there's a little inflation with the AUD. The prices seem about right for Melbourne, but wow yeah you New Zealand folks pay quite a bit for foods that are otherwise considered cheap!
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting!
I'm in Queensland Inala sell them for $6 and they are yum
@@SeagullGC you're welcome! Groceries are overpriced too. I compared a weekly shop a British woman did with what we would pay here in NZ, she spent GBP£90, it would have cost me NZD$480 (Around £240).
Looks good, right near 'King Crab Co.' in Bulimba, too. P.S a lot of KFC stores are all out of chicken for the next few weeks.
it's the end of the world!
Most likely get their bread from relatives or friends who run or work in a hot bread shop/Vietnamese bakery 😁
This was two months ago? I just saw this? I’m Vietnamese, glad to see this.
Did you go and get a massage from the place over the road, after the Banh Mi, Greg?
Roll looked great and need the pate for sure, always go the chili......Good Job!!!!
$11.......Nup !!! Looks OK but where I live typically $7 - $7.50 with heaps of meat / herb / veg and generally a line of customers at lunchtime
Looks bloody good
Nice video Grego !
How can crackling be "too hard"?!
Turn it up Greggo!!
In Sydney they cost about $5 dollars to $3.50 dollars
Greg you should take a drive one day to the shops opposite Darra train station. There are about 4 Banh Mi shops there and they are all pretty good. I have my favourite, crispy pork with extra chilli. :)
Those things make a mess , take a while to get through but boy are they good , yes the chilly is a must
Good work Greggo!!
The mayonnaise is Vietnamese whipped butter
It's basically just mayo and butter whipped together 😁
Looks great!👌
And it's called CRACKLING!!!
I want to get one tomorrow.
Yeah when I was visiting Vietnam, the Banh Mi was more of a snack than a full meal!
Great bread isn't something you'd expect from Vietnamese food, but it is ideal!
looks yummy
Looks beautiful
Love these!
Yes Grego, that is Pate. It’s on all a pork Bahn Mi.
Sorry but $11 for a banh mi?! Gee that’s steep. The best Vietnamese bakeries in Sydney make them for 5-6 dollars with the lot, and they are absolutely to die for. You can even add some cheese. Glad you enjoyed it but you’re getting ripped off lol.
Cheese? WTF?
Pipi Longstocking don’t knock it til you try it
@@tw9720 Do you ask for tomato sauce as well?
Was that a fly in the hot box. Watched twice and still unsure.
It is pate all good Banh Mi have it on ,
Crunchy and chewy is the best crackling 😛😛😛😛😛😛😛
These things are addictive
a filled roll for $11. to quote doctor mccoy, "are you out of your vulcan mind" !
You should try the Combination Banh Mi Dac Biet
Bahn Mii rolls are awsome.
GregO Next time your in Victoria look up Bun Bun Bakery in Springvale it will change your life !!!👍🍻
Pate is a staple for BM
Greg, What are you driving? is it a Subaru?
Why would you think it's a subaru? It's a mitsubishi Triton ute.
The name reminds me of the Universal Greeting from the Transformers, Bahh Weep Gran Ah Weep Ninni Bahn. LOL
Easily 4.8 greggos. Brought down by $11 price tag. Keen to try
Just saw you got the plague. All the best mate. Nice looking bahn mi too.
You need to go to Vietnamese kitchen at Buranda the best bah mi in Brissy
Scotts Rd Darra is better
I had a banh mi for brekkie this morning from sunny Nha Trang, it was wicked. I'd told me Greg sent me , they didn't have a clue! Who Greg, what you talk, you crazy.
Grego, you should try this place called Viet Fresh Rolls in daisy hill, they’re the best banh mi I’ve had!
$11 is robbery. What a rip off!!!!
In the US, "coriander" is called "cilantro"...
Most people already know that. Cilantro is the Spanish name for coriander obviously.
All right cowboy, come try a pie from 7-Eleven Redland Bay South early morning i'm on (10am-7pm sun, mon tuesday)
giddy up and Greg on!
That sounds really fruity.
Didn't last time you reviewed one of these the joint shut down? hehe!
ahahahah legit?
The one at the hotel?
That’s pate on the banh mi, because the French were in Vietnam in the first indo China war
Congratulations on 300k ..proud sub all the way from Cyprus thanku so much for everything much love and God bless always x
On ya Grego
You got it in one Grego old mate.
It is Pate
All Banh Mi has pate on it. Its normal traditional
THAT is a decent looking banh mi, like what we get here in Vic, in places like SPRINGVALE! (Banh mi capital of Oz!) Still OVER priced tho!
ANY good banh mi joint will BAKE their own rolls from a comb of wheat & rice flour!
That mayo was the chef’s special all for you Greg. You gobbled it up like no tomorrow 😂.
Not for the first time either, from what i've heard.
