Uh I've been a couple of times already and it's not amazing. It's ok. Just because these people are so beautiful and hip and connected to your fav bar and they spend money on design doesn't an amazing sandwich make.
Their bread is from Central and the ingredients are pretty good, but it's not anything we don't have around here. We do have Salumi's, Tats, and a quick bus up to the market can grab you amongst other things an I Love New York Deli 'which which will butt slam these pretentious pretty boys.
What we really need around these parts is a decent slice of pizza.
What I miss in Pioneer Square is soup. Soupdaddy's used to be my favorite place for lunch on a cold, rainy day.
Are vegetarians still considered freaks in Seattle? How can this be? I thought you were progressive.
And I'll second you on Pizza Pro's decentness, too.
Fucking vegetarians always have to bitch. Make your own sandwiches or go some place that does cater to your fucked up world view
Oh, and Pizza Pro is good.
I want Delicatus to be good but this post is over the top. I'll give it some time but really there are great sandwiches in quite a few spots around here and the sub-great are not that bad either.
I am looking forward the their liver + something else sandwich. But if I want to impress my friends I'll take the to Salumi's.
@8 And true that about the vege menu, that's pretty lame they can only come up with one vege sandwich. Even if they say "we'll make it however you want", that doesn't cut it. They need to come up with something they are the chefs.
Aardvark, I can't fault you for being a pizza snob. I'm from Texas, and I feel the same way about Seattle's BBQ. But Pizza Pro works for my palate!
But after reading BJC's post below, I get the feeling that being veggie is akin to being a naive hippie anarchist in many Seattleites minds -- hence "The Activist". I find that a bit insulting.
They could easily come up with 3-8 veggie choices with all those amazing ingredients at hand.
I work in SLU and have tried Soup Daddy a few times. Unimpressed with the soups (few of which are veggie, come to think of it) and they somehow managed to redecorate a depressing basement space to make it more depressing.
Also, Dan Savage should avoid it because someone who seems to eat there frequently has their dog sitting at the table with them.
also, about the bread, which i guess is from essential not central, but anyway, it's not really my kind of sandwich bread. its sort of why central's sandwiches are just ok too- it's hard to get past the bread which sort of stands out on it's own too much.
Sandwiches! I like a simple tomato, mozza & pesto on sourdough bread; or avocado, fresh garden tomato, and smoked gruyere with garlic mayo... roasted vegetables are good, especially with creamy chevre on chewy whole-grain levain bread, or smoked tofu with sauteed spinach and mushrooms, and a grainy mustard... and of course, a good hummus and tomato on toasted cheese-laced bread... yumm!
I'll remember Cherry St. Coffee next time I'm in Seattle.
I support people who do, though. I think the real key is to eat meat infrequently (meaning not every day), and to get it from good sources. Then it's enjoyed as a true pleasure, and not taken for granted.
One: he stands in place and the world revolves around him.
A good Reuben should be a total mess to eat; I'm OK if it's not bigger than my head since I can never even finish half of those anyway (although they're great at I Love New York). I barely touched my napkin, and in fact I even peeled it apart to make sure it had any sauce at all.
The meat (texture and flavor) and cheese (flavor) were both really good, which made the condiments sadder. This seems like a case of 90% great ingredients combined with really weird ideas of what makes a great sandwich.
I believe the Reuben was $7.75; cheaper than most places unless you're including Subway. (I don't know if Subway even offers a Reuben.)
I'm going back. Next time I go I'm special ordering four-times the normal amount of sauce. Just saying "extra sauce" will not get the job done.
and while i am on the PSq tip, fuck tat's. garbage and dirty.
hope of looking like east coast attitude. good luck
