A large beef with extra sauce from Nick’s Famous Roast Beef. It’s simplicity on a bun: Warm, fresh roasted, rarer than you can imagine, super thin sliced roast beef, James River BBQ sauce, and nothing else, on a sesame seed hamburg bun. If you go for the super beef, you get an ENORMOUS sandwich, on an onion roll. Take a look for yourself:

A thick slab of liverwurst with a thick slab of sweet, fragrant onion and plenty of brown deli mustard on black rye or pumpernickel. Food of the Gods!

A reuben, with melted swiss cheese and pastrami and sauerkraut on rye.

Any kind of subway sandwich whatsoever, especially if it has sliced jalapenos and vinegar.

Almost any Cuban (described above).

Lately, my sandwich of choice has been ham, mayo (NOT Miracle-Whip), cheddar cheese (its the only stuff we have fit for sandwiches) and lettuce on toasted brown bread.

On the other hand, you can’t beat the Thanksgiving-Week sandwich of LOTS of turkey breast, LOTS of mayo and salt and pepper. Lettuce may be added if you feel like it, but it doesn’t improve the basic all that much!

Oh and I just rememberd the BEST sandwich from a restauraunt. It’s a little cafe in Hamilton called the Bourbon Street Cafe. A little artsy and expensive, but REALLY yummy!

This sandwich was on what they called “Stone bread” which is an old-fashioned kind of bun. It was grilled chicken (a good full breast worth, in strips/chunks) and Brie cheese. There were 4 slices of brie, each about 3cm wide, 8cm long and at least 0.5cm thick. SO TASTY!! I gotta go back there…!

**JuanitaTech** , if you need a new sandwich in Baltimore try Marie’s in Lexington Market (in the older section of the market) and order a simple corned beef on rye with mayo and mustard. They load that bad boy up high with the most tender, marbled corned beef…best anywhere.

I’ll go for a hot beef sandwich, on fresh baked bread, smothered in gravy.

I’ll eat them anywhere, but the best ones are at small family-owned restaurants. Chain stores usually use fake gravy, which is still edible, but disappointing.

Missed it by that much, Chief!

[/Maxwell Smart]

Just add thin sliced tomato (and real Mayonnaise) and you’ll have one of the all time classic Danish smorgasbord combinations. A little cracked black pepper and it’s Cloud 9 time.
