another meaty sammich

my memory of this sandwich is better than it actually tasted — i think. it was a hot and humid day in new york city, and after a day of riding the subway and walking around town, food never looked so good. my mom and i were on our way to whole foods to shop and eat, but then decided to go to a recommended restaurant at the time warner center in columbus circle called landmarc. i’m not gonna lie, the waitress was not the business … so i was kind of dreading my meal. i mean, c’mon … i was a hot and hungry tourist who just wanted a decent meal in an air conditioned space.

anyway,  this *steak sandwich* was cooked to perfection and topped with caramalized onions served on a baguette. now, looking at the picture, one might think, how the heck can i pick that up and put it in my mouth? it’s gigantic! well friends, it is possible. i had a big decision to make: order with or without the cheese. being lactose intolerant, i would normally choose without. however, for some reason this time i felt like i would be missing out on the completion of the dish. as you can see, i chose the cheese which by the way was gruyére … sensational swissness. yum. it was the glue to my sandwich. i am convinced that if i hadn’t ordered the gruyére this landmarc sandwich wouldn’t have made it on my blog. 

actually, i would go here again.
