Bolognese

’m back in Sydney already but clearly still thinking about my last few Bangkok sandwiches. Before flying out, I went back to Antico Fornaio two more times. When good sandwiches are this close to home in Bangkok, resistance is low.

This was easily my favourite of the four. Everything felt balanced and intentional. The focaccia was excellent, the mortadella had a subtle spiced warmth, and the taleggio added that creamy, slightly funky richness. The pistachio paste tied everything together beautifully.

Loved the detail of spreading the pistachio paste, toasting the bread again till crisp, then layering the mortadella on top and finishing with olive oil. Simple moves, big payoff.

Really happy with this one.
