Challenges of Sandwich Culture in Catalonia
Despite the culinary wealth we have in Catalonia, sandwiches often take a back seat. We host little gems like the sandwiches of the Valencian Country, where daring to fill a loaf of bread with unusual ingredients is a tradition. However, when we talk about the rest, we have to admit that creativity in making sandwiches is a little far from us.
Gastronomic Inspiration: The Italian Example
Italy offers a master lesson in the art of sandwich making. From the renowned panini to variants such as the succulent pork leg sandwich, each creation reflects an exceptional combination of flavor and texture. Exemplified by unique places such as Bágoa or Quimet d’Horta, these sandwiches are a testament to what is possible when a good ingredient is valued and given the prominence it deserves.
The United States: The Sandwich Masters
Across the Atlantic, Americans have elevated the creation of the sandwich to the stratum of gastronomy. At the Sandwich Club in Barcelona, this tradition is explored through a variety of proposals that include aged beef burgers and smoked pastrami sandwiches. Each piece is an invitation to enjoy textures and flavors that complement each other harmoniously.
A Letter Full of Surprises
The Sandwich Club menu is a tribute to cheese from the United States. They offer everything from the unforgettable grilled cheese to the amazing meatball sandwich in a succulent brioche bun. Now, in addition to the traditional ones, they have incorporated vegan options such as ivy, which imitates chicken. This allows all diners to enjoy the rich offer.
Accompaniments and Dessert Options
For those looking to complement their sandwiches, the Sandwich Club offers a Caesar salad with the option of making a half portion. The options don’t stop there; French fries and spicy nuggets expand the flavor repertoire. And we can’t forget the desserts: from the classic cheesecake to the brownie and the tiramisu, every option is a promise of satisfaction.
A Complete Culinary Experience
The selection of drinks completes the dining experience, with iced tea, craft beer and natural wine on hand. In addition, the convenience of being able to place orders for home delivery adds an advantage for those who wish to enjoy all this luxury without leaving home.
