Leg ham sandwich
leg ham, Swiss cheese, dijon mustard, mayo, tomato relish, pickles and lettuce on white sandwich bread
A super simple ham and cheese sandwich—reminds me of what I’d imagine a classic school lunch would be like. I didn’t grow up eating sandwiches for lunch (Asian kid here), but this definitely fits that nostalgic vibe.
What I liked was the little upgrades: tomato relish and pickles added a gentle sweetness and tang, which made it feel more put-together than your plain old ham and mayo. The Swiss cheese gave a touch of sharpness, and the soft sandwich bread was light but sturdy enough to hold it all together.
It was $12, given it’s made fresh to order and uses decent ingredients, I didn’t mind. Not a must-try, but honestly comforting and satisfying. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want.
