The Best of The Best

Growing up, one of the first jobs I ever had, and maybe what could have been the beginning of my deep rooted sandwich obsession, was working in an Italian sandwich shop for the summer. The best part of the job was that my excellent bosses let us have as many free sandwiches as we wanted, and boy, after eating them every single day for a whole summer, never once did I say, "Hmm... I think I'll having something OTHER than a sandwich today..." Think panninis made with olive bread, cheese bread, herbs and sundried tomatoes... not to mention the most amazing marinated vegetables I've ever had.

That place was awesome, and I would have only ever given it the greatest of reviews, other than maybe the time I had to give my boss Hell for picking up a sandwich off the floor and trying to stick it back into the basket for sale.... Sadly (and I hope not for the bad Karma from trying to sell dirty sandwiches) the restaurant is closed... But in retrospect, it sure was one heck of a place.

This section of The Sandwich Press is dedicated to reviews of various restaurants known to have THE best sandwiches. Reviews are categorized by places I've actually gone to and experienced sandwich heaven (or hell) first hand, and reviews according to others, including info I compile myself. Because of where I happen to live, the majority of my personal experiences will be from provinces and states like Quebec, Ontario, New York and Massechusetts.

If you've been to a place with sandwiches that are tried and true for you, I'd love to hear about them. You can send your questions, comments and reviews to thesandwichpress@yahoo.com .

Hmmm.... So now I have a blog... how 'bout that?

I'll be honest. I'm a total food junkie. With an insatiable hunger to know, talk and think about everything food, I have finally decided to put all of my previously wasted energy into a product that, hey, maybe one day someone will want to read!

Currently a school teacher, I'm one of those who, within an hour of talking to me for the first time, most people comment something like "So, you're really into food, huh?" I'm one of those who ALWAYS wanted to be a cook, but somewhere along the way decided working conditions would be more important than passion for my job in the long run. And, to a certain extent, this all does still apply. But 15 years later, the itch still needs to be scratched, and I'm excited to  start this new project that will let me share my ideas with the World!~ Or at least a very tiny part of it...

So I begin this venture into the world of sandwiches. Where it will take me, who knows... So far, a Sandwich of the Week, and occasional posts of my thoughts on different products, shows, and other foodie news.

Cheers,

Kim
