2nd Avenue & Pike Street, Seattle, WA
We found the pig in Seattle at approximately 12:30pm, we already had it planned out what we wanted to try. I wanted the minimus pork and Buddha Girl wanted the maximus chicken.
What??? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! The group ahead of us ordered the last of the chicken...boo!!! We ended up just ordering a minimus, a maximus pork and a hibiscus nectar. All in, it was only $16, good pricing.
The
Hibiscus Nectar 洛神花蜜茶 had a nice deep rich colour. This was refreshing and not overly sweet.
Buddha Dog was trying to peek at what we got. The
Minimus Pork (left) was sweet and tangy whereas the
Maximus Pork (right) was a bit spicy and hot. You could ask for additional "hot" by asking for some "hurt". The meat was shredded and was perfectly moist with just the right amount of sauce. Cilantro was also added to give a freshness feel. The downside was the sandwiches were quite messy to eat.
We enjoyed both sandwiches. I leaned more towards the minimus while Buddha Girl liked the maximus. Their menu states the maximus has a mixture of peppers, onions and fruit juices where the minimus has tamarind, honey and molasses. Buddha Girl thought she detected a hint of hoisin...must be the Chinese in her. We'd definitely return.
The downside was the sandwiches were quite messy to eat.
ReplyDeleteSince when this is a downside??? :)
@kim,
ReplyDeleteit is a downside considering that this was our first food stop for lunch and we had more places to go. sticky hands makes for uncomfortable driving. plus Buddha Dog doesn't like bbq type sauces, so he won't lick it clean for me.
BB, asking the wrong person. I am sure BG will lick it... Wait, did I just write that??? :P
ReplyDeleteOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
