Sausage special

It’s been a long while since my last visit to Small’s Deli, largely because I’ve been cutting down on my sandwich intake this year. I’m extremely pleased I didn’t skip out on this Sausage Special. It proved to be yet another sandwich masterpiece. Each bite vividly reminded me why I consider them the pinnacle of sandwich artistry in town. The complexity of their flavours is genuinely unmatched, going well beyond anything you’d encounter at typical sandwich shops.

The spiced lamb sausages deliver just the right amount of heat, igniting a delightful tingle with each mouthful. I’m normally not one for tomato sauce, but this time was different. It was deep, rich, and the clever inclusion of sweet sultanas added a brilliant twist. The herbs contributed additional layers of flavour, elevating the overall experience of the sandwich. The marinated red peppers brought a vibrant zing that perfectly complemented the richness, while the harissa mayo added a creamy, spicy kick that tied all the flavours together beautifully. The herbs contributed additional layers of flavour, elevating the overall experience of the sandwich. And the panini? Its perfect crunch and chew were spot-on, exactly what you’d hope for in a perfectly crafted sandwich, and as great as ever. I’m indeed a happy, happy boy!
