This was truly the most amazing sandwich I've ever had! And beer never tasted quite so good as with this.
oh, yummy memories!!! I like how your very shallow dof makes the beer blurred out! yet the sandwich stand out! Thanks for linking to mine -- will link yours to mine now, too. (BTW, my @ name is jyokota -- I didn't get the notification on this one.)
Oh yum! What a fab food shot and I am so glad that you found the place in the end. This looks like a particularly nice "special" steak sandwich I had in Madeira (lots of rare and tender prime steak, salad vegetables, cheese, fried egg and mayonnaise in a gorgeous fresh bun). I didn't photograph mine because I was just too busy eating it!
@golftragic Ha!! No one could pick it up and eat it!! Truth be told, I ate the insides out of it, with part of the lower slide of the bun. TOOO much food otherwise -- and even at that, I should have only had half! It really tasted amazing. I've never seen anyone put that much mayo, though, on a sandwich!
@bill_fe Ha! Actually, the 'shock and awe' came from an email from our colleague's students who are from Santiago and gave us a list of suggestions. For this sandwich place, they wrote that we should be prepared to be 'shocked and awed' by the sandwiches (as well as the amount of mayo they put on them!).
@taffy All perfectly understandable I'd reckon. It's beyond me why sandwiches and burgers are frequently too big for anyone to get their mouth around. Australia has just discovered the Reuben, but it's so massive everyone I know is sharing one between two people.
How can it be that I just got up from the dinner table and yet I think I would love to have one of these! I don't need your help in rustling up an appetite, thank you...it's been a disastrous December, food-wise!
