      @@christopherbareja996 not a chance. Rueben sandwich is so much better as a sandwich. Chicken sandwich is only good because of the fried chicken, you can do that minus the sandwich. Id argue bun and other things lower quality of fried chicken. The Rueben on the other hand has salty and umami from corned beef, has tangy and kinda vinegar sour from the sauerkraut, swiss cheese brings a nuttiness to it, then choose mustard of russian dressing on marbled rye. I mean it is the yin and yang of greatness and every part of it is integral for it to be good.

    Im saying this a former manager at many delis and sub restaurants. Cuban is solid no doubt, but I want to sell you on something I bet you've never had. Take some honey ham, sliced how you like it. Lay some out like a bed, add a layer sliced provolone, fold that once to the size of the sandwich and drop it on a hot pan. Let it sizzle for a bit, flip it. You know you are nailing it when the ham is browning in parts on the cooked side.
    Have a good sub roll prepared with mayo and lettuce. Drop the hot ham and provolone on that, add white onions and sliced tomato. Just a dash of oregano to the top, close that and enjoy! I wasn't a fan of ham until I tried it with melted provolone and all the fix.
    Add yes sirs to your liking 😉
    Big respect to NL for not dissing the grilled cheese. He is right, you can do fantastic things to them. Lately I've been melting cheddar on ciabattas with slices of roma tomato added after taking out of the toaster oven.
    Another favorite is melted mozzarella on thin focaccia with roma, basil leaves and a dash of Italian red oil and pesto.

    In the final battle NL made right choice.
    The cubano is the better sandwich, because the sandwich as a whole is better than any of its parts. It's the combination of its ingredients that elevates it above any other sandwich. The falafel pita on the other hand is almost exclusively about the falafel. It's only because falafel is so damn good that the falafel pita ever stood a chance. But good falafel does not a sandwich make, the other ingredients are mere accessories to falafel's greatness. Considered as a sandwich, understood as the carefully put together balanced amalgum of ingredients, the cubano is clearly superior.

    @Northernlion A Bocadillo is a Spanish sandwich. Typically, it's made out of Jamón Serrano (the Spanish equivalent of Parma ham) and with some Spanish hard cheese (similar to Parmesan cheese, but typically a little softer and less intense, especially the one you would put on a sandwich), on a Spanish baguette (Spain has some of the world's best bread btw).
    In short, it's normally as good as a sandwich gets... just supreme ingredients on a great bread. Also, super easy/great for bringing with you; just wrap it in some plastic foil, and it will stay fresh for a couple of days in room temperature.

    Im not american so I have to ask, why is a chicken burger in here?
    In many other counties (including my own) this is NOT considered a sandwich.
    I do know what americans consider a burger and I disagree with the logic, because at the end of the day american fast food call it a sandwich to "trick" people into thinking its healthier where in fact it is often worse for you than a regular beef burger.

    Cucumber tea sandwiches are great... but whoever wrote that book had never had one.
    Take your wheat bread, make sure it's nice and fluffy and fresh.
    Cut it into slices. Cut the crusts off the slices.
    Slice your cucumber into decent sized chunks about 3mm to 6mm thick.
    Spread salted butter on one side, cream cheese on the other with a layer of cucumber in between.
    Cut into triangles.
    Amazing sandwich that is incredibly light and refreshing. Great at afternoon teas alongside petite fours.

    The Cubano is genuinely my favorite sandwich, I even ran it as a special at my last job at a restaurant on st pattys day(that had many of these sandwiches on its menu already) and we sold so many they put it on the new menu. The only thing we sold more that day was Reubens. I think you underrate banh mi and reuben and need to treat yourself to a real jambon beurre but regardless I don't think I've ever agreed with an opinion bracket more.

    • @nationalgeo2191
      @nationalgeo2191 2 роки тому

      Yes totally! There’s something so perfect about a proper jambon beurre that you wouldn’t understand until you’ve had it because on paper as an American it sounds like crap. But when you get actual hood baguette, with actual good butter, and actual good ham, man is it good. Sorry for all the actuals but it had to be said lol, can’t have no bargain brand ham and land o lakes on some wonder bread. Let alone the best ingredients you could possibly get in a supermarket don’t even come close to what you could get if you actually were able to get your hands on some good stuff.

    Blasting the Monte Cristo in round one... Very sad he's never had it with jam, that's the part that makes it stand out as great. There's this local place that serves it on special raspberry bread and then slathered in a homemade raspberry jam.

    I also for a long time subscribed to adding banana to the PB&J, but after a couple years I grew tired of it. Now I think it's too sweet that way, which isn't what I'm looking for in a breakfast. With that said, falafel pita is the best sandwich, and nothing really comes close for me.
