Over on the Twitter feed was counting down the 5 best sandwiches in HRM and here were the results
- 5. Sullys in North End Halifax, their smoked meat is the closest to Montreal you can get and great service
- 4. Kaisers the Sackville institution, who perfected the assorted sub 30 years ago and haveseen no reason to change that
- 3. A tie. Kel’s mixed meat sandwich piled high, sadly Kel’s closes in 9 days and Pete’s Frootique their craved sandwiches areloaded with real food but the Lamb with mint jelly is fab
- 2. Ciboulette Cafe on Barrington, home of metros best panini’s and the Meatloaf one is the standout of the crowd
- 1. Salvatore’s Meatball Hero – everything from scratch and made with an extra dash of love, this bad boy cant be beat.
though I may have cursed something as this discovery was mad not long after I made the list
