When it comes to finding great dining, Disney Springs probably can’t be beat. Plus, the shopping and dining district has a little something for everyone, including a first class wine bar (with equally great food), a gourmet chocolate shop, a donut shop, and more.

Pork Belly Bahn Mi

When it comes to quick-service restaurants in Disney Springs, we’re big fans of The Polite Pig, which does BBQ dishes just beautifully. However, this month, The Polite Pig decided to change things up a bit and has a special sandwich dish to celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. So we headed to The Polite Pig to check it out.

Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

The Polite Pig just dropped a new Chef Special, the Pork Belly Bánh Mì with three-pepper cherry glazed bulgogi pork belly, spicy pickled veggies, and baby arugula on a toasted baguette.  It’s served with an Asian Noodle Salad with lo mein, shiitake mushrooms, napa cabbage, shaved red onion, and soy ginger vinaigrette. So you get a sandwich AND noodles for $23!

The sandwich

Let’s start with the Pork Belly Bánh Mi, which we expected to be kinda’ Americanized in a BBQ way, but it wasn’t. It’s not exactly a traditional bánh mi, but it’s close. You’ve got pork belly that’s crunchy on the outside and tender inside. The arugula, pickled carrots, and pickled jalapeños add some nice texture, plus the jalapeños add a hint of spice that works well with the sweet glaze on the meat. The bread, though, was a little chewy and hard to bite through.

SO tasty

The Asian Noodle Salad is a cold noodle salad with a nice kick offered by the pickled carrots and some dry spices. The noodles were thick and doughy, and were a great side for a hot day.

So is it worth $23? Well, we didn’t think so, but at the same time, you DO get a side with the sandwich. It is a nice, unique offering in Disney Springs, so if that’s what you’re looking for, you might want to order it.

We’ll keep an eye out for more new food in Disney World, so stay tuned to DFB for more reviews.
