One of the things I miss about living on the East Coast was the plentitude of Asian shops, little groceries, and of course, the loverly H-Mart supermarket. I used to get banh mi takeout on a regular basis, in which the ‘meat’ was typically prepared tofu. (baked? fried? I don’t remember)

The prices were usually incredibly low at almost all these places, too, which rewarded constant experimentation.

That bread looks nice and crusty, btw. That there’s the bomb, for me.
