Wednesday Dinner 9/2/10

Well good morning and happy Thursday! The weekend is here and I am so looking forward to this 3 day weekend. I want everyone to have a safe and happy Labor day! This weeks "Wednesday Dinner" was short but OH SOOOOOO GOOD! The sun was shining yesterday and it was such a lovely day here in California and I was feeling very Cali-ish with what I wanted to eat. I wanted something simple and flavorful and I got just that. I decided to stop by "All About the Bread" (http://allaboutthebread.com/), "All About the Bread" is located off of Melrose in a tiny little strip complex joined with another restaurant and a Pinkberry (EWWW). At first sight I got turned off because there was no parking in the front, however with a slight left turn into the alley I was greeted with Valet and I got a free hour of parking. Walking into "All About the Bread" I was immediately in sandwich heaven, I have to be honest but sandwiches are one of my favorite things to eat! "All About the Bread" was so clean, neat and it had this fresh aroma to it. I smelled the fresh bread being baked!!! There were quite a few people dining solo inside so I didn't feel alone and there were a group of guys sitting outside eating. With a variety of meats and cheeses and one type of bread ordering was easy, I was a little distracted because there was a cute guy taking my order but I was able to compose myself and here is what I ordered:


Small Honey Turkey & Swiss and Chips

"All About the Bread" makes all their sandwiches with the works which include (Vegan mayo, mustard, onions, pickles, tomatoes, lettuce, Italian dressing, and roasted peppers, mild or medium Chicago style peppers). At first sight this might seem like a lot on a sandwich however its not. I got everything except the peppers, I asked for those on the side but I guess the guy didn't hear that. I was a little taken back that the drinks and chips were so expensive! A bottled drink is $3.00 and $1.75 for a bag of chips (SHAME) good thing I had my water in my purse. I waited about 5 minutes for my sandwich to be made, "All About the Bread" cuts their meat and cheeses in house which is great. So my name was called and it was time to dive into my sandwich. And it was LOVE at first bite! The freshness in this sandwich was so apparent! I could taste every veggie, the meat and the cheese. This sandwich was not overly saturated with onions or anything. It was absolutely amazing!!!! The vegan mayo along with the Italian dressing gives this sandwich its stand out taste! My total came to $8.25 which included $6.50 for the sandwich and $1.75 for the chips. Unfortunately I only ate half of my sandwich but it was good down to the last bite. I strongly suggest that you get familiar with "All About the Bread" real soon! I am claiming this as my #1 sandwich place!!! I will definitely be going back sooner than later!
