    I am extremely happy to see a Banh Mi joint finally in Oslo in the form of Miss Gin. A very popular…read morefood trend today is Asian fusion, but the Vietnamese has been doing this way before it became fashionable. The banh mi is a perfect example of Vietnamese fusion. A banh mi basically combines French baguette and Asian fillings. It is really the embodiment of East meets West, which Vietnamese cuisine is famous for. I myself am a big fan of Vietnamese cuisine and was very eager to try out Miss Gin. My wife and I decided to try Miss Gin after seeing excellent reviews on Yelp. We both ordered the Chasiu (roast red pork) banh mi as we both love chasiu. I must say, it was love at first bite! The baguette was crunchy on the outside and chasiu was sweet and savory. Being Vietnamese, flavors were balanced with pickled carrots and radish, bit of heat from the seasoned fish sauce, and freshness from the cucumber and cilantro (koriander). Miss Gin is a perfect example of how to stay true to one type of cuisine and doing it well. Although Miss Gin is a relatively small take out restaurant, their choice to showcase Vietnamese street food and banh mi fits their profile. Prices are extremely fair for Norway food prices. Vietnam was trully highlighted in their food selection and I look forward to trying out the other banh mi selections and spring rolls.

    WOW! Being from Seattle I know my Asian cuisine, I eat it constantly and know what's good and what…read moreisn't. Miss Gin is legit! Miss Gin is a tiny little hole in the wall on Thorvald Meyers Gate. I hopped on in and browsed the cold and hot case curiously. I saw something called pig ear salad that was almost interesting enough to buy and take home, maybe next time. I ended up ordering the pork banh mi to go. It took about 10 minutes or so, which went by quickly while sitting on their comfy stools (I am short so they were just the right height). While waiting I saw pictures on the wall of other items on the menu... the fresh rolls look really good! I plan on ordering those next time. I took my banh mi to go and nestled it in my sack hoping it'd stay warm on the hike home. It's aroma tempted me on my journey and I was happy to see that it was still warm when I unwrapped it in my kitchen. Miss Gin does a great job on the bread, it's delicious, I am not sure if they bake it in house or order it in, but I did see him toast it in the oven, so it had a pleasant crunch. The mayo, to meat, to pickled veggie ratios were spot on! The meat was really really flavorful, I am not sure what spices or marinade were involved but it was so good. I polished off the whole thing, send a picture to my husband, and bragged I had an amazing banh mi in Norway! I can't wait to go back!
