Best Sandwich You've Ever Had

I was lightly toasted bread (white, because we didn’t know any other kind existed in the 70s in small town PA), iceberg lettuce, tomato, onion, Lebanon bologna, oil and vinegar, and oregano. It was fabulous. Sometimes I dream about it. It was sort of inspired by the hoagies we would get for long car rides, but simpler.

Why can’t you make it now, for yourself?

I was wondering if I was going to be the only one to mention a muffuletta from Central Grocery. There's a place next door that also makes a really good muffuletta (I can't remember the name). I buy the Central Grocery olive salad and make muffulettas at home.

I had forgotten about that. It was good!

My favorite, which is a well-known sandwich in the foodie world, is called the Yardbird. It can be had at Slows In Detroit. It has Amish chicken, mushrooms; cheddar, and bacon.

I’m 5 minutes from there this morning - haven’t been to Rips in 15 years. I may try this one today.

I used to go to a small sandwich shop that made something called a Granny and Jack: fresh Granny Smith apple slices, melted jack cheese, and lots of caramelized onions. Amazing.

My best sandwich was in a random bar in Barcelona. It was a holiday and all the restaurants were closed. We wandered into this bar and asked if they had food. They said they would come up with something. Something was very crusty buttered bread filled with spanish tortilla (egg, potatoes and onions).

It hasn't changed a bit! Hope you got to experience this delicacy!

The JLT at Jaleo. The J is jamon serrano, it’s on a wonderful toasted bread, with the most amazing little bit of perfectly salted greens and house made mayo.

That sounds so delicious and indulgent!

We used to make these when I worked for a caterer. We did a mini version on crescent rolls. People LOVED them.

Once a year we order an Italian beef kit from Portillo's.

I just read about this place and plan on trying it ASAP: http://zofiaskitchen.com/
