Croque Campagnard, my best friend favorite sandwich, is back on the menu at Cafe Presse. You have no idea how hard I’m trying to hold in the exclamation points.

Let’s never fight again, Croque Campagnard.

  1. HEY LINDY,

    JUST WANTED TO SAY…

    PLZ DON’T BRING ME ONE OF THESE IN A DOGGEE BAG ON FRYDAY. DUSNT LOOK GOOD. SORRY.

    CAN’T WAIT TO SEE U!!!!!

  2. @6: Dictionaries seem to indicate that “One slice of bread covered with a filling” is also a sandwich.

    Also, from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich#Us… :

    “The term sandwich is occasionally used (informally) in reference to open-faced sandwiches; these normally consist of a single slice of bread topped with meat, salad vegetables, and various condiments, and differs from a normal sandwich in having a single slice of bread instead of two, with toppings instead of a filling.[9] The open-faced sandwich also has a history differing from that of the true sandwich, having originated between the 6th and 16th centuries, with stale slices of bread used as plates called “Trenchers” (whereas its relative, the modern sandwich, traces its roots to the Earl of Sandwich instead),[4] In the United States, a court in Boston, Massachusetts ruled that “sandwich” includes at least two slices of bread. [2] and “under this definition and as dictated by common sense, this court finds that the term “sandwich” is not commonly understood to include burritos, tacos, and quesadillas, which are typically made with a single tortilla and stuffed with a choice filling of meat, rice, and beans.”[10] The issue was whether a restaurant which sold burritos could move into a shopping center where another restaurant had a no-compete clause in its lease prohibiting other “sandwich” shops.”

  3. I think the color saturation is off making it look less appetizing than what Lindy’s trying to convey. Doesn’t look like much of a sandwich for seven bucks though. Are you still hungry after you finish it, Lindy?

  4. Hell yes. The only good thing about the Campagnard’s menu removal was that it prompted me to make them at home all the damn time. And now i don’t have to. Thanks, Presse!

  5. The Croque Madame is also awesome. Fancy-schmancy French ham sandwich with a fried egg on top. Awe-some. But now I’ll have to try this.

    And people complaining about the picture… you have no imagination. You’re looking at flavor!
