You Say Sandwich, We Say Yeah!

  When, Where, What, Why? I remember nothing about this. Any help will be appreciated.

Every once in a while I will find a photo on my phone that eludes my memory. I have no recall as to where this came from, but I can make some guesses. - The bread reminds me of the plain panne from Le Gourmand - The filling looks like melted cheese and marinara sauce, likely with a cutlet as this looks too flat for a meatball - Le Gourmand doesn't do a marinara sauced sandwich. - The paper wrap looks greased through, like a fast food joint - I have no recollection of eating this or if it was delicious or disgusting. - That probably means it wasn't very good, but not bad enough to be offensive. - Would I remember if given the option again? - And would I order it again?

Having recently returned to Rome, I was quickly reminded that sometimes the most simple is the most delicious. By the third bite, this panini sandwich picked up from the Piazza Barberini neighbourhood interrupted my thoughts with " Good Lord, this sandwich is awesome !" Taking a photo so that I may remember for possible replication here at home, this sandwich was most straightforward: a very seedy fresh wholegrain bread, Italian salami, oven-roasted yellow bell pepper, soft mozzarella, and arugula. I'm seduced by the mystery of Italy, and how everything tasted so amazing there ... is it the freshness of the olive oil? Absolutely wonderful.
