Toasted Sandwiches
|
Probably a big favourite in most sandwich bars and cooked either on a grill or in a Panini press, Italian style. You can pick your fillings and they will make it in front of you. Croque Monsieur is very popular (gruyere cheese and ham French style) as this is also buttered on the outside before grilling or sometimes frying. Croque Madame includes a fried egg as well.

Sandwiches

Amazing selections of fillings are now available, including continental meats and cheeses, vegetable mixes. Traditional sandwich fillings such as cheese and pickle, ham salad etc no longer take priority as more people are going for more ‘exotic’ fillings with a continental theme. A variety of breads such as ciabatta, olive bread, walnut bread etc. now makes any ordinary sandwich no longer boring but enjoyable to eat.

Becoming more popular are the variety of baguettes available, not just the fillings but the bread itself – white, wholemeal, rustic, walnut, olive – you name it! Fillings have become more exotic too, using continental meats and cheeses, chicken mixes such as Coronation chicken. But still the bacon and egg breakfast baguette or hot sausage baguette remains supreme in choice for that early morning ‘snack’.
