The gourmet sandwich craze is full on here in NYC. This is a good thing though, especially for me; I love a great sandwich! No. 7 Sub, which originated in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, now has an outpost at The Ace Hotel, on 29th and Broadway-one of the hippest corners in town!

This past Friday I stopped into a packed house (they only do take-out) and ordered the braised lamb ($9) with peanut butter, mint jelly, romaine, and pappadam. A combination of ingredients you would never imagine together, but chef Tyler Kord is an absolute genius, for the sandwich was amazing! A complete masterpiece. I also had the "Route 11 Chesapeake Crab" potato chips ($2.50) and a house-made hibiscus ginger ale ($3), which was fabulous! I cannot wait to go back this week and try another sub from No. 7. This place rocks!
