Iberico ham sandwich – Store Cafe

Iberico ham sandwich - Store Cafe
Served with olives, fresh orange juice, and coffee with milk. €8.50
Store Cafe, Barcelona SPAIN

We were on our way to Park Guell and needed a quick meal so we ducked into Store Cafe. I loved how the ham just melted on your mouth, and how they lightly spread the bread with tomato. I don’t like it when Spanish places put too much tomato on their bread especially on their sandwich. I’m not even a sandwich person, but there is something about Spanish sandwiches that I really love.

The Cuban sandwich – Barndiva

The Cuban sandwich - Barndiva
Sliced Hobbs applewood smoked ham, swiss, pepperoncini relish, heirloom beets, and frites. $17
Barndiva, Healdsburg CA

This sandwich was pretty big, and it had a lot of flavor. I liked the pepperoncini relish, and of course the beets and frites were super tasty. I wish the bread was toasted though, or that the entire sandwich was pressed.

Mustard, mayonnaise, pickles, romaine lettuce, red onions and jalapenos. Sandwich and soup combo $8.99
Sammy’s on 2nd, San Francisco CA

This sandwich was simple and very tasty. I liked their thin sliced mortadella and they put a good amount of it in the sandwich. The soft roll was even “soft” and a yummy choice for this sandwich.

I really enjoyed this (even though my arteries say “no”!). The country steak was nicely fried and the gravy was tasty. The hash browns were also nice and crispy and not greasy. NOMS!
