If you love adorable pets, sandwiches, and pho, then you’ll want to get involved in the final day of the November Sandwich Madness competition at G by Mike Isabella.
I teamed up with Kapnos chef Mark Petonito to create the Un-PHO-Gettable Dip sandwich: a baguette stuffed with spit-roasted pork, homemade hoisin sauce, Sriracha-lime vinaigrette, fresh herbs, and a side of warm pho jus for dunking. If (and only if) the sandwich outsells the sandwich designed by Eun Yang of NBC4, a portion of sales will benefit the Humane Rescue Alliance—the organization formed from the merger of the Washington Humane Society and the Washington Animal Rescue League (a.k.a. one of the best things to happen in 2016).
The sandwich ($13) is available via Grub Hub delivery from 11 a.m. through 10 p.m., and at the 14th Street sandwich shop during the same hours. Happy dipping.
