Whats for Lunch?

Hi everyone! As you can tell, we have been busy. Both of us have been working full time, but we look to get back in the habit of up dating our blog. Speaking of work, I work in the building on the left and Adrianne in the building on the right. We work across the street from each other (how cute huh?) anyways, these are a couple of places we like to eat at when we are not packing awesome lunches from home. Enjoy and be on the look out for new post coming soon!
  

Working Girls Cafe is a place we drive by every week on our way to work. One time there was a bunch of construction men wearing hard hats eating underneath the working girls logo, too bad we didn't have a camera. We both had the salmon sandwiches and it was one of the few sandwiches I didn't mind having extra mayo on. Super yummy.

Bread and Cocoa is another local cafe that has great sandwiches. About two weeks ago we came in here when it was pouring rain during lunch time. I had the portabella sandwich. The bread was a little tough but the mushroom was super savory and juicy. Adrianne had the tomato basil soup and it was one of those times (like always) that I wish I had ordered what she was having.

San Francisco Boxed Food Co. is another place that always has a line out the door. This place serves all their food in boxes. hence the name. We ordered the brie and pare sandwiches (so many sandwiches huh) and this was one of the most interesting taste fusions I have had.

Last, we have the farmers market every Thursday in the galleria on Sutter and Montgomery. We get strawberries when in season which has been for the past month. Not only do they have fresh fruits and veggies, but there is this man named Bryd who makes pretzels. Not just any pretzels, but pretzel knots. He ties the pretzels in knots before they are baked. One of the best things in The City in my opinion.

Constructed Egg Potoato Salad Sandwich

 It seems like lately menus all around the City have some sort of "deconstructed" item, but do they really need to point out that its deconstructed? I think its just clever marketing to charge an extra buck for something that someone was too lazy to mix together. So I am calling my salad "constructed" because I actually took the time to finish what I started. This simple recipe calls for:

• 6 hard boiled eggs (with yolks)
• 3 medium red potatoes
• 4 sliced green onions
• 8oz Best Foods mayonnaise
• salt to taste

Let the eggs and potatoes cool before slicing them (to speed up process, puts eggs and potatoes in cold water). Crumble the hard yolks and add everything in a mixing bowl then proceed to mix everything and then let the salad chill in the fridge for half an hour.

I recommend serving the salad on a Dutch Crunch bread roll. Once the sandwich is "constructed" then you can presume to "deconstruct" it with your mouth. 

Enjoy -M
