MAAANNNYYY MAAANNNYYYY months ago No. 7 Sub started to do breakfast sandwiches from 8 to 10:30am. I was definitely intrigued. Some of their sandwiches don’t quite work as a whole but still tasty. I love the bread that they use soft but still sturdy enough to whole everything together. Yes I like this place, a lot. Now it took me a long time to try all of their sandwiches. It took me so long that in the middle of it they changed the menu.

You have no idea how much good stuff I have heard about Saltie. From the internets to the people I know. I’ve been wanting to go to Saltie for a while but it wasn’t till one of my friend, super picky eater, told me that he likes Saltie that really made me want to go that instant. One random Sunday I had to run to Williamsburg for errands and decided to check out Saltie.

I walked in to find a near empty place except for 2 girls sitting by the window and a couple that seem to know the owners. The place was chilled, roomy and bright. I wasn’t sure what I wanted but I randomly got the Spanish Armada sandwich. I noticed they raised the prices of their sandwiches by a dollar compared to what it is on the website. Maybe they need help updating their website? If so I can help! Gimme a call! Within a minute after I placed my order I got my sandwich.

I have heard a lot about Tiny’s Giant Sandwich Shop probably 95% from Robyn. Last time when I was eating the banana pudding at Sugar Sweet Sunshine I noticed Tiny’s diagonally across and vowed to make a trip for a sandwich. Finally the Friday before the 4th of July I got off work early and decided to go to Tiny’s for a late laaate lunch.

I walked in and was quickly greeted by the waiter, he called me boss the whole time, and I sat down at the table nearest to the counter. I looked through the menu but wasn’t tooooooo sure what I wanted and ended up getting the tuna melt. I love tuna melt. I was pretty starving even before I got to Tiny’s but I’m glad I didn’t have to wait long for my tuna melt. The open face sandwich with melty swiss cheese looks goooooood. Served with potato chips and a really thin slice of pickle, WTF?

2 slices of bread cut into halves so that means I have 4 tuna melts! The first 2 slices were awesome not too much cheese and a good amount of tuna. The cheese was still melty enough for me to pull to make that stringy cheese thing eh you know the thing that cheese does. Anyways, it really hit the spot. Next time I’m going to try one of their sandwiches.

Few weeks ago, yes couple weeks ago…I like to daydream that I have a life besides blogging but actually I’m just too lazy to write this up but alas I’m not feeling too lazy right now so I’m writing this now. Eh couple weeks ago I attended my very first Unfancy Food Show. The Unfancy Food Show now in its 4th year in a nut shell is food show for the smaller businesses and mostly local (Brooklyn) businesses. It may have also started as a “middle finger” to the Fancy Food Show that takes place on the same weekend over at Javitz Center in Manhattan. Brooklyn people are classy like that hahaaa.

This time around it was at The Bell House so after getting a snack at the Smith St Fun Day I strolled over to The Bell House. By the time I got there, around1:30pm, the place was packed. There were few food vendors outside while most of them were inside. It really sucked to be the ones outside in the heat though. IT WAS BUUUUURRRRRNNNNIIINNNNGGGGGG outside and it was COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL inside. After paying the $5 entrance fee and getting my hand stamped I made my way to the back. I found my friend Mike working the Meat Hook merch table and was great to have met Tom, the real Meat Hook guy!

The room in the back where the Bell House has their shows was jam packed with people and tables. It was so hard to maneuver between the aisles but in the end it was a fun event and I ended up eating few good bites!

Oh Mile End, I like how you bring a TON of people onto Hoyt Street every weekend during brunch hours. No I don’t actually. I hate waiting with big crowds, I’m hungry and I want to eat right away but for some odd reason I don’t mind waiting for dim sum. Weird. Anyways the only time I’ve been to Mile End was just to go and pick up my Montreal bagels.

Yes I’ve been wanting to go try Mile End for a while now but they close too damn early everyday and with the crowds over the weekend I’ll never get to go! Oh wait they just did announce their brand spankin new dinner hours! w00t! Maybe now I can get my smoked meat finally?

I had no idea what to do about dinner while working through the isles of Trader Joe’s in Brooklyn. I had a small crave for pasta but was too lazy to cook, part of me also wanted to just leave Trader Joe’s and get pad thai but the other part of me wanted to save money. Ah what to do, what to do. I was walking near the bread section and thought “hmmmm I do love bread, hmmm what if I just make a sandwich? What about a sandwich topped with chili?” And from then on ideas and cravings just poured into my head. The above photo is what I came up with. Texas toast, mayo, wild arugula, 1 slices of mozzarella cheese, hash brown and vegetarian chili.

I ate 2 of these. !!! Food coma in 10, 9, 8… *ZZZZZzzzzZZzzzzzzz

This was AWESOME!! Really really hit all the different cravings I had. The taste of the chili was a bit overpowering though.
