Last night, a friend and I were searching for a cheap and delicious dinner. We were thrilled to discover that Kampuchea's amazing sandwiches can be found for $5 less at Num Pang Sandwich Shop (its sister restaurant). Why this is, I don't know... maybe it's because the menu is much less extensive. At any rate, I sunk my teeth into a special grilled Spanish mackerel sandwich ($7.75). The substantial, meaty fillet spilled out of the spicy-mayo-slathered, toasted roll, which was layered with the customary cilantro sprigs, shredded carrots and sliced cucumbers. My friend devoured his pulled duroc pork with spiced honey. "Good call!" he said. (And then, our wallets emptied of less than $10, we made our way over to Momofuku Milk Bar for some chocolate-mint soft serve.)
Num Pang Sandwich Shop: 21 East 12th St., (212) 255.3271.

Good to hear it! I have been craving those sandwiches ever since we ate at Kampuchea over a year ago, and I've really been wanting to go to the sandwich shop. Do they have the BLT there too? *drool*
