You Say Sandwich, We Say Yeah!

I tried t his place when I first moved into the neighborhood and I found it a bit lacking. Here is the post on that. However, as I had predicted, I stopped in again to pick up some essentials and decided to try their Muffuletta. This is by far a more superior sandwich and judging from the options, probably their best. The olive spread is what really kicks this one up a notch, as the deli meats and cheese are all pretty standard and the bread is good, but basic. No, it's the olive spread that ties it all together, a possibly made in house concoction that distinguishes this place from the rest. Well, they don't have much competition, there's a deli two blocks over that doesn't offer sandwiches (but better meat choices) and there's really nothing of its kind in the neighborhood, surprisingly, and yet, there's no real reason to go here when everything is so close. I hope they succeed though, and maybe a few more items like this one will make it more of a dest...

I noticed this joint almost immediately as I moved into the neighborhood. In the first few days of settling in, I had an empty fridge and an empty belly, and wandering by with an arm full of bags, I got the "Fat Tony" (two types of prosciutto, marinated peppers, and provolone) along with a cherry soda and some nice olive oil and other small things to go. The bread was just okay, but the fillings were ample, and while it's a place I should love at first sight, there was just something slightly missing for me to order this one again. Their sandwich menu runs a full sheet, offering both hot and cold options, and I do wonder about the muffuletta, so I will probably return.
