ONE MORE FOR THE ARCHIVE
Smoked Wagyu Sandwich
from Taste Growers Market
with aioli, onion marmalade, mixed salad, bocconcini and olives on ciabatta roll
I was out for my morning walk and it was freezinggg. Initially I was thinking a nice warm toastie, but didn’t want anything too heavy before training. Then I stopped by East Village for some protein bars and, of course, the sandwiches at Taste Growers Market caught my eye 😂 This one looked pretty nice and light, so here we are.
I opted to have it fresh. I guess by now you know I’m a fresh sandwich kinda guy haha.
There was a decent amount of smoked wagyu and plenty of bocconcini adding some creaminess. The onion marmalade brought a little sweetness, and I liked that it was light on the aioli. I would’ve liked more olives though. I swear there was literally one whole olive in there 😂 A few chopped throughout would’ve added a nice salty kick. The ciabatta was light but pretty standard.
Overall, it did the job. A little different from your stock-standard café sandwich, light but satisfying, and a pretty good pre-training option.
