Sandwiches, sandwiches, SANDWICHES!!!
Like Joey from Friends, I love me some sandwiches. I believe this place opened less than a month ago, and I noticed it when I went to Single Origin one day and made a note to check it out. As its namesake states, this place is a simple sandwich shop. The interior is cozy, the people friendly, and the music sets the mood. Me gusta.
The place is clean, straight to the point with natural and fresh ingredients, affordable (under $10!) and tasty to boot. They don't do sides except for the bread they serve during breakfast, and they also have salads if you don't want to have a sandwich. Let's be real here though, why would you go to The Sandwich Shop and not order a sandwich? Depending on the sandwich, you get to choose what kind of bread you'd like as well between rye, sourdough, and whole wheat.
The sandwiches on tap are:
Chicken Schnitzel
The Sandwich Club
Rare Roast Beef
Tuna + White Bean
Smoked Salmon Bagel
The Original New York Reuben
Pulled Pork
The Ultimate Salad Sandwich
You can also create your own sambo if you like.
My friend and I ordered the Rare Roast Beef and The Original New York Reuben.
If you like cheese, you will like the Rare Roast Beef. The Fontina Cheese used to top this was massive and flavourful. The roast beef could have been a bit more rare for my taste but it was still very good nonetheless.
The Reuben...the reuben was great. I wouldn't call it the Original New York Reuben but that's not a bad thing. The Reuben served here was very high quality, as the beef is a thicker and juicier slice than you'd get with a New York Reuben. The cheese, sauerkraut and dressing were great as well. Definitely the best "Reuben" I've had in Sydney so far.
If you like sandwiches you can't go wrong here. I'll have to come back to try the others. read more
