Am I the only one who thinks a $4 banh mi beats a $9 burger almost every time?
Last Tuesday I hit up a spot on Bellaire in Houston and got a banh mi for $4.50 that had grilled pork, pickled carrots, and a jalapeno kick that made my whole afternoon better. Then Friday I caved and spent $9 on a burger at a place near my apartment and it was fine, but I kept thinking about that banh mi the whole time. So here is my debate: do you go for two cheap, amazing sandwiches a week, or one "good" burger that costs double and leaves you feeling just okay? I want to hear which side you all land on and where the best $5 and under sandwich is in your area.
