Iron Chef Truck Edition???? Battle Banh Mi

We have been blessed with the creation of a days old eastern tradition in our own back yard. The creation of Food Truck Kitchen Stadium!
Here, Iron Food Truck chefs compete for glory and to answer the question "Who's food truck cuisine reins supreme?"
Today in Battle Banh Mi we have 3 competitors.
Team one's combination of business sense, speed, top quality ingredients and a cute logo make them the team to beat. The Nom Nom Truck
Our second team is one woman's vision of a fusion between the Vietnamese tastes and Hawaiian tastes combined with recipes learned from her family. The Mandoline Grill
Our third team is a family owned truck that serves a more complete Vietnamese home cooked menu and offers some variety. Now entering Food Truck Kitchen Stadium, Eat Phamish
The Nom Nom truck is probably the most well known of the 3. Started by two college girls after graduating they adhere to the sound philosophy of doing one thing and doing it well. Their truck is always clean, service is very fast and the food is very good. I've stood in line at the Nom Nom truck on a couple of occasions and was very surprised how fast they are able to move that line. On one occasion I was actually first in line and my sandwich was ready before I was even done paying for it. The quality is good and reliable. Nom Nom definitely doesn't disappoint.
Next up we have Mandoline Grill. Here we have the vision of one woman inspired by her family's fusion of Vietnamese and Hawaiian flavors. She spent years researching and perfecting these recipes to the point where they could be reproduced with constancy. All that research paid off in spades. These are some of the best quality sandwiches I've ever had. And there are some other very imaginative uses of the ingredients here as well. The Vietnamese Nachos are wort trying as well for something a little different.
Finally we have the family owned Eat Phamish truck. This is more of a restaurant on wheels in the sense that their offerings go beyond the Banh Mi's to spring rolls, Pho and Vermicelli/Rice dishes. This was also the first Banh Mi I ever tried. Clearly it hooked me in. The Banh Mi was meaty, big and delicious. The spring roll is also very good here.
So who's cuisine reins supreme?
That's the decision of our judges.
Who are our judges?
Why, you of course!
Here's the way I see it. The flat out best one in my opinion is Mandoline Grill. For me, the flavor is best and the sandwich satisfies me.
Only a very short distance behind is Nom Nom. Technically well executed, these girls know what the sandwich should taste like and hit it consistently. Great truck if you're in a hurry. Very fast service.
And almost in a dead heat with Nom Nom is Eat Phamish.The food here tastes as if it came from somebody's kitchen. The Banh Mi itself, large and meaty with great flavor. The spring rolls here are worth a try as well, but beware, they're bigger in person than the pictures on the truck make you think they are.
So try all 3 and you be the judge.
Make it an adventure. Then it's obvious who the winner will be, why you of course!
