Here’s a few well-executed sandwiches in or near our ‘hood. Using the most liberal possible definition of “sandwich” and in no particular order:
-
El Cubano, Cyclops.
Sweet meets savory: “Roasted pulled pork, sliced pit ham, Jarlsberg cheese, thin sliced pickle, dijon mustard and poblano aioli on a grilled ciabatta.” Early-afternoon weekend brunch material here.
-
East Coast or Chicken Chipotle, Mike’s East Coast Sandwiches
Update: Moved to Pioneer Square.
Fresh off the panini grill at Cafe Two at Antioch College (with Stumptown drip coffee), Forza Coffee at Fisher Plaza, and Motore Coffee (9th & Lenora).
-
New Town Special, New Town Market
I recommend smoked turkey instead of peppermill turkey. The same Boar’s Head menu is available at Westlake Specialty Market (7th & Westlake).
-
Your custom deli sandwich, ordered online, Specialty’s Cafe
Use their sandwich configurator to build a custom sandwich, then order and pay online for pick up in 15 minutes (yes, this actually works!). It’s like they timed a leisurely walk from Belltown to 5th and Union. My pick: the Taguchi Goat Club
-
Spicy Moroccan Pita, Zeitoon Cafe
Update: closed.
“Dolme, hummus, tabouli, lettuce, cucumber, garlic sauce, house sauce, hot sauce and tzatziky.” Pro tip: ask for light or no house sauce, and cut it in half before eating or you’ll wear some leftovers home.</p>
-
The Gaucho Dip or 410 Burger, El Gaucho Bar
The menu does its job: “Sliced Certified angus Beef prime top sirloin, toasted baguette, chimichurri aioli, english Coastal Cheddar, house au jus, taro chips.” For 50% off, pair with a glass of wine and a friend (or an iPad) during “The Gaucho 120” (minutes of happy hour).
Enjoy!
