ONE MORE FOR THE ARCHIVE
Beef Sando
from Pun Pun City
smash patty with cheddar, pickles, sake butter, and Tokyo mac sauce on shokupan
At the start of the year, I made a pact with myself: one sandwich a week. And I’ve stuck to it like glue. But since I’m jetting off tomorrow morning, I thought, why not break the rules and squeeze in an extra sando this week? Off to PUNPUN I went, ready to tick off the last item on their menu I hadn’t tried yet—the beef sando.
This one? It tasted like your go-to cheeseburger, but fancied up on shokupan. Compared to PUNPUN’s other creations, it didn’t quite hit the same level of wow for me. That said, it was still a solid sando. The beef patty had a great bounce to it—juicy, fun to chew, and packed with flavour. On the downside, I found it a little heavy on the sauce, which made the bread go slightly soggy and the whole thing a bit messy.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice sando, but not the star of the menu in my book.
Unless I stumble across another sandwich back home in Thailand, this might just be my final sandwich of the year. Here’s to more delicious creations in 2025! Happy holidays and happy munching, everyone! 🎄🥪
