#35 of 48: Tuna Salad at Louisa's.

Tuna salad sandwiches don't excite us much. That being said, Louisa’s Café & Bakery makes a pretty darn good tuna salad sandwich. Served on super soft bread, their tuna mixture is crunchy and complimented with pickles and chips. So, yeah, it sounds a bit standard, but it's really better than that. Not served on Sunday, free wifi available.

#33 + #34 of 48: Bánh Mì.

Bánh Mì sandwiches are kind of new to us Midwesterners. Fortunately for us, four of them appear on the list, so we've been able to discover what makes them oh-so-tasty. The Saigon and Seattle Delis in the International District both offer unbelievably cheap sandwiches and a myriad of other goodies.

Slightly intimidating and a little loud, Saigon Deli offers carry out only. Their Bánh Mì Thit Nuong tasted like beef jerky and coleslaw combined in a good way . With better atmosphere than Saigon Deli, Seattle Deli is clean, well stocked and has a great staff. Although Shawn found their Bánh Mì Chy to be on the bland side, I thought its slight spiciness offered just enough kick.

This day of sandwich eating was definitely our least expensive yet. We spent around $10 total for two sandwiches, egg rolls, a pork bun and a drink. That alone is worth a good grade.

Oh, and my apologies, but we experienced a total camera fail at the time of eating these sandwiches. So, this post is without photos and the next one has phone photos. Fortunately, this problem has since been remedied!

#31 + #32 of 48: Pear Delicatessen.

Well, believe it or not, our quest to eat Seattle's best sandwiches continues! We popped into Pear Delicatessen at Pike Place Market a couple of months ago where 2 (!) sandwiches made the list. Imagine how excited we were when both were good enough to rank with an "A".

We honestly weren't expecting to like the first sandwich, the Downtown Duck. Served on a buttery croissant instead of the usual brioche, we were amazed at how much we enjoyed it. It really hit the spot with its spicy, creamy sauce, light vegetables and not-too-fatty duck.

The Salumi Palermo, while just as good, had a completely different flavor profile. Tangy, salty and full of delicious Mama Lil's peppers, the sandwich was a gooey, hearty delight. Served on grilled olive bread, the Salumi Palermo is a good value because of its easily shared size.

Overall, we were really excited to discover this deli. They sell a vast array of gourmet goodies including Vosges chocolates, nice cheeses, beer and sodas. What a great place to revisit the next time we're at the market...
