 My favorite sandwiches Start with a hearty grain bread. Put swiss and cheddar cheese, with thinly sliced tomatoes and avocados. On the outside, brush melted herb butter and sprinkle with parmesan cheese before grilling. The ultimate grilled cheese sandwich. I also liked grilled PB&J. Chicken salad (poached chicken breasts, grapes, celery, red onion, and Granny smith diced apples with mayo, salt, and pepper) served in a grilled pita And my own creation- cobb salad sandwich- chicken, bacon, avocado, green onion, cheddar cheese, boiled egg, tomatoes, with mayo. ~~Shimmer~~

 Jim --- Is that a picture of a Pirmani's(sp??) sandwich. I got treated to one of those in Pittsburgh --I think it is a specialty there. Very good -- an acquired taste I think with that coleslaw in there, though. Dunk |

 Liverwurst, bologna and Gulden's aside, I had dinner @CraftBar last night. It's the scaled down, relaxed annex to Craft. They do only 3 entrees/night and.........Sandwiches! Oh, boy  We split 2. One had duck ham, sauteed hen of the woods mushrooms and (I forget which kind of) cheese. The second was a more pedestrian, yet no less tasty, grilled chicken breast, oven dried tomato and (I forget which kind of) cheese. They are served warm and pressed. The bread looked like ciabatta (had about the right width) and the whole thing was pressed down to somewhere between 1/2 - 3/4 of an inch. Really tasty.

 Kyle, I'm JEALOUS! Ooh, ooh! I think they make it with taleggio. Oh well, I'm going to D'Artagnan for dinner tonight. And tomorrow we're having an "osso buco" fest for 12 people, with braised baby artichokes, farro, homemade almond ice milk -- eat your heart out!   |

| Dunk- You bet!!! You get the Primanti's Gold Star!!! For those of you who have not had the pleasure, a Primanti's sandwich is basically you choice of meat: grilled bologna, or steak, or tuna, or capapcola, or whatever.... the kicker is that it is served on really soft Italian bread with provolone, cole slaw, fresh cut french fries & tomatoes... all on the sandwich. It costs about $4 and sits in your belly for about a week!! It's great to watch them make those messy concoctions, too. Normally a big, burly Iron City 'burgher grabs the potatoes right from the just-lifted fry basket with the his hariy knuckled hands, slaps on the meat right from the grill and jams the slaw on top with those same hands. Plops it on a piece of deli paper and there ya' go!

| Sounds like it might give Capriotti's a run for the money

| Kyle, You may be right!! For those of you who aren't "in the know", Capriotti's (www.capriottis.com) is famous for roasting about a jillion pounds of turkey each day and then hand-pulling the meat for their sandwiches. One of their classics (and my personal favorite) is the turkey on the softest roll known to man/woman, slathered with Russian dressing, slabs of Swiss cheese and creamy cole slaw! And don't EVER order a Large... it is like 4 feet long. Enough for 3... or 4 hungry folks. Kyle... I'm buyin'.... when you showing up?!?!

| In summertime only - a tomato sandwich- white bread, Hellman's, and thick slices of tomatoes right out of the garden, with salt/pepper. Method - Hold the sandwich in both hands, and stand over the sink! All you bologna lovers - how about a fried bologna sandwich?

| I'm with just about everybody else on some of these. There's a restaurant in Gaithersburg, MD who's name escapes me (help me out someone) that has I believe 100 or more sandwiches on the menu. Granted the difeerence between sandwich #86 & 87 maybe the addition on mushrooms, still it's a lot! Personally in no particular order. A classic Reuben A BLT on toasted white Salt bagel with smoked whitefish, nova lox and cream cheese Steak & Provolone sandwich with lett, tom., mayo and cooked onions only Fried pastrami on rye with Guldens Monte Christo with hot raspberry dip. Kentucky ham on pumpernickel with cream cheese and lingonberry jam triple decker sweet ham & swiss with turkey and cole slaw on three slices of rye with russian dressing. I know there's more, but for now......mmmmmm
